My Latest Score

Dear Fellow 8-Track Enthusiasts

I have a new score to share.It happened this afternoon.

I went to a Super Flea Market in another area of Western New York
called Cheektowaga and I found 7 8-Tracks.A couple of old lady's were
selling them and I was overjoyed to find these.These were the first 8-
Tracks that I've found in a long time and I couldn't resist
these.Below is the list of what I have found:

The Ultimate Engelbert Humperdinck

Marty Robbins: With Love,Marty Robbins

Two by Frank Sinatra:

That's Life
Greatest Hits Volume 1

The Lettermen:All Time Greatest Hits

Two that are still sealed

Elvis Presley: I Got Lucky(This is a Pickwick reissue,which is white
shelled with a protective plastic cap covering up the playing area)

Joe Venuti In Milan(Blue Shelled GRT cart of a Vanguard Recording
Society release)

I tried out a few of them.The Marty Robbins cart played beautifully
without the splice breaking.The latter three,the Sinatra's and
Lettermen carts need new pads and possibly new splices.Hopefully,I
will be sending these to Kate's Track Shack next month to get them
tuned up so they will sound better.I sent out a whole bunch of carts a
few months back and when I got them back,I tried most of them out and
they sound terrific.They actually sounded better than when I bought
them initially.

I just thought that I would share this with all of you.I hope that all
of you have a nice evening.Sincerely Frank R.Schoonover

P.S.I also scored on Ebay recently.I won Billy Joel's Greatest Hits
Volumes 1 & 2.Billy Joel's Piano Man,which is the original black
shelled Ampex cart and KISS' debut album,which is also the original
black shelled Ampex cart.

Frank, with all due respect all these carts you mentioned are nothing
spectacular, other than "filler" used in bulk sales lots for 25 cents
each or so. The only cart of interest there even remotely valuable or
slightly rare, if at all- is KISS s/t debut

I mean really, Billy Joel and Sinatra ? good artists, and I respect
it if you like that music, but their carts are nearly worthless

Frank never mentioned the carts being worth anything or valuable so
why do you have to **** on someones parade?

Not everything in this world is about what something is worth
moneywise, there's also sentimental value, sometimes that is priceless.

Hey Noodles

I have noticed that with some of your posts.you have the nerve to say
"with all due respect" when in reality, you have NO RESPECT for anyone
in here and that even includes yourself. The way you just attacked
Frank with your remarks about his score shows that as proof of you not
having any respect for anyone. Not only that, your obsessive behavior
with Desert Bob and Ricky is also proof of this. The way you try to
point the finger at both of them for the **** that you cause here
trying to make them look like the guilty ones and then try to erase
hoping that no traces are left behind is also proof of this. Not only
that, you know that you are just puffing smoke because you know that
nobody in here even wants you around.

Put all of this together and what do you get? A man who has NO RESPECT
for anyone and that even includes himself. I know that the truth hurts
Noodles.But that is your own fault.You brought this on yourself.

Apparently,you are still ****ed off over losing one of your best
customers because of the way you are. Again Noodles,as stated above,
IT'S ALL YOUR OWN FAULT.


I mean really, Billy Joel and Sinatra ? *good artists, and I respect
it if you like that music, *but their carts are nearly worthless

Actually Noodles, as Kayak144 stated, there is sentimental value and
sentimental value is priceless.I also do have to point out that there
are some carts by these artists that were only made available through
Record Clubs such as Columbia House and RCA Music Service and Billy
Joel's Greatest Hits Volumes 1 & 2 is no exception. That means that
this is a rare cart because there wern't too many of them produced or
sold. That, in the eyes and heart of any collector, that is like GOLD.

The only thing that your personal attacks are showing is that you have
NO RESPECT for anyone, not even yourself.

Take my advice,Noodles. You better quit while your ahead.

I've got something that I would like to say to you.This latest
personal attack on me that you have made has actually made me laugh.
Yes it has.

The reason why is because I am not going to let you crush my joy and
enthusiasm over this latest find that I made.I am happy to have found
these and I will always be happy regarding that. NO personal attack or
insults that you make at me isn't going to change a thing about the
way I feel. What I am trying to say is that you just made a fool of
yourself.

By the way, as a sidenote, those carts that I bought off of you on
Ebay are sounding a lot better than when I first bought them. I had
Kate's Track Shack fix them with Win-Gib pads and the splices were
also replaced and they sound better than ever. I am going to be
sending them a lot more carts for them to fix in the near future.

How does that grab you?Frank R.Schoonover

Frank, with all due respect snip

Coming from Charlie Nudo, Drums, PA, that's an insult...he doesn't
respect ANYONE.

Who gives a rip WHAT you think, Noodles? If he gets the carts, plays
them, fixes them and enjoys them, who they hell are you to denigrate
his choices? Only a feckless moron, that's who...and that would be
Charlie "Zito" Nudo. To me, he has a very broad choice of musical
fare from which to listen...because he has an open mind. Yours can't
even be open, since it doesn't even exist anymore. Must be all that
mercury shorting out your synapses. Got blood cancer yet? NO PEP
NOODLES!

I suppose his cart choices and luck on finding them are somehow
inferior to your rusted out auto parts scams on fleaBay, according to
you. You already had a lot of the people in the Pontiac forum (which
you were thrown out of, despite being a "founding member", which you
falsely claimed) laughing at you...again...Zito.

You tell him, Frank. After years of being pummeled on Usenet,
"Noodles" still doesn't "get it." He's just as bullheaded, arrogant
and disgusting as that whack job Scalia on the Supreme Court. (See
"60 Minutes" section on cbs.com for a replay, if you didn't catch the
Leslie Stahl interview last night.) Only problem Zito Noodles has is
that he's much, much dumber and has zero credulity.

It'd be funny if they even looked the same!

you're taking it the wrong way, Frank- I'm talking about the 8-track
tapes, not you personally- settle down

if you posted that remark in 8trackheaven they'd be all over you
