Intresting find


It always amazed me how the 8 track cassette can play such a long continuous loop of tape and not get tangled up inside.

Had several that ate the tapes. We had a work truck that got lock jawed on Foghat "Stone Blue" 8 Track. You could turn the radio on and off, but only got the 8 Track Tape that was stuck. We drove all over Texas working and listening to Foghat for two years.


Wind tearin' through the backstreet, I hear the rhythm of my heart beat,
Rain blowin' to my face, I'm tired of being in the wrong place.

Blues knockin' on my back door, I can't jump from the second floor,
Turn up the radio higher and higher, rock and roll music set my ears on fire.

When I was stone blue, rock and roll sure helped me through.

Laid off work and I can't be free, I need some rock 'n' roll therapy.
Put on a 45 and let the needle ride, jukebox jumps and I'll be satisfied.

That damned 8 Track played a continuous loop alright.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
