1649ArticleHoju Koolander@Vaporman87 I might just take you up on that. It's about time to transfer those recording before the tapes disintegrate anyway. Dec 15, 2014View
1650ArticleVaporman87Yeah, I actually transferred quite a few over to CD's, but having them on a memory card of some kind would also be a good idea.My Christmas 1982Dec 15, 2014View
1662ArticleBarryBgbThis was great. I used to record stuff all the time too. I had so many tapes (close to 100) and it was an obsession. I had all of them too until this past year when I was finally able to let a few boxes go. What can I say? More space was needed. It was with a heavy heart, but I had to. Those were good times. E.T. is as magical now as it was then. Still gives goosebumps. I was 3/4 around the time, but I remember seeing it on the big screen. I had the lunchbox and a plastic mug that came with Reeses Pieces. Those were the days.My Christmas 1982Dec 16, 2014View
1665ArticleSockofFleagullsI got my first mini boombox a little later in the decade, but I remember trying to record songs off the radio and when high speed dubbing was THE feature to have on your boombox or stereo. Thanks for the memories!My Christmas 1982Dec 16, 2014View
1670ArticleVaporman87While on the subject, there is a great image collection of cassette tapes <a href="http://www.tapedeck.org">located here</a>. I tried contacting the owner to see if he'd be willing to lend out his image collection to us, so we could have it displayed here, but never received a reply.My Christmas 1982Dec 16, 2014View
1724ArticleOldSchool80sI thought the pajamas would get more comments.My Christmas 1982Dec 22, 2014View
1725ArticleVaporman87@OldSchool - I'm not sure if I ever had a pair of ET pajamas, but I do know I owned an ET t-shirt, because I'm wearing it on my "ET Birthday". That was the birthday my mom had somebody make me an ET cake, which I have described in another article comment section. Basically, it was a two foot tall ET made of cake. And it tasted awful.

2198ArticleRetro King of the LandI had that same radio! I used to tape "radio broadcast' late into the night with that. My Christmas 1982Apr 04, 2015View
2204ArticleVaporman87@Retro King: Do you mean to say that you recorded YOURSELF performing broadcasts, or you simply recorded actual radio broadcasts? If it's the former, then I am in the same boat. I still have several cassette tapes with my friends and I acting out our "broadcasts". Great stuff.My Christmas 1982Apr 05, 2015View
4227ArticleJOscarJrThese are great memories, and you helped stir some of my own as well. I have discovered that "American Top 40 - The 80s" is available on platforms like TuneIn and iHeartRadio, so I go back in time quite frequently while listening to the old countdowns. Great stuff!My Christmas 1982Dec 20, 2017View
