Don't feel too bad KISS Alive! died in my 68 Rebel. For you 8-track junkies, or people who want to trip out down memory lane, here is one of my favorite websites: http://www.8trackheaven.com/ And to hear a actual 8 track player changing KERPLUNK!!! click here: http://www.8trackheaven.com/sounds.html Worse ever 'change' between tracks? That is easy, on Machine Head, by Deep Purple, just as they start jamming on Highway Star, sound fades lower then KERPLUNK!!! then sound comes right back up. When crusing in Mondo's Pinto, ot Junior's Impala, or my Javelin this was always a good time to pass the reefer or pop open another Schlitz Malt Liquor baby bull. Enjoy that site above.
