My dad is big on classic rock. My music preferences are broad, but I have a lot of really good memories listening to that kind of stuff on my dad's huge RCA combo record/ 8 Track player that had these big speakers on either side of the center control section. Whole thing was like 7-8ft wide, made of solid wood, heavy as hell, but sounded amazing to me. Always wondered what happened to that thing.
Uncle calls me out of the blue this AM and tells me that he is moving and that he has had it for 25+ years, ever since my pop gave it to him to hold on to for a bit while my parents were in the middle of moving to Texas! LOL Long story short: My dad doesn't want it back, and tomorrow Im headed out of town to pick up that bad boy tomorrow! Got the truck already packed and am heading out early tomorrow AM.
Totally random, totally awesome
