No I don't. I've been looking in thrift stores, but can't find one I'm willing to pay for. I refuse to pay $50 for an 8-track player.

My grandmother still has one of those long stereos. It has an 8-track recorder on it. It still plays tapes but I don't think it can record now though.

William Golden, the one with the long beard. But he's back with them now. He's behind Mike in this pic.

OK. Thanks Mickey.

What the hell does Marlon have own.

This is from when country was still c.o.u.n.t.r.y.

My mother LOVES country music. It used to embarrass the crap out of me that she was like the only black person in America to attend the annual Jamboree in the Hills. She had the boots, the cowgirl hat, the fringe vest, the whole nine yards.

In retrospect... well... yeah, it's still embarrassing. But I'm glad she exposed me to the country classics. It made my world bigger, and there was a lot of soul in that music.

1980-82 was a transitional period for the American music industry. Just less than a year after disco "died", country started to crossover to Top 40 radio. The Oak Ridge Boys were one of those country acts.

I saw the Oak Ridge Boys with my grandma last year=] good memories grandson grandma bonding experience lol. it was right before i went to college so it was a great way to spend the day

The Oak Ridge boys "rock out".

I haven't heard this song since it probably went off mainstream radio...and I still remembered the damned chorus.

at first glance I said, look Tommy Lee.

In this video, the guy 2nd from the right is William Lee when he was clean shaven and hair wasn't real long.

Your taste level is becoming questionable.

I don't believe in "taste" (whatever that means) because I'm not a fuddy duddy music snob.
