Hello Arlo!!
I am so glad to get to see the totally farout web site!!
I have been to your show at the Garden State Arts Center at Homdel, NJ in the eighties. You and Pete put on one hell of a show. I also have been at a show at Mariners Hall in San Fransisco in the Ninties your kids where wonderfull. I still have Hobo's Lullabye on 8 Track and was wondering if you know where I might score an 8 track player Later

Ole Ray,
Eight-track players seem to be going for $20 and up on eBay. OR...you could click on "Get Stuff" in the gray bars on the left, and order a remastered CD of Hobo's Lullaby for $13.50. Such a deal!

wow, you think if you plug that thing in it will work? I'd go with the CD but I am curious about if that thing will work. I think I have a box of them in the attic.

do they include a supply of matchbooks? If you ever owned an 8-track, you know what I mean. :)

Thanks Fellas!!I already have Lullabye on CD. I just have so many fond memories of stickin matchbooks to shim the tape in the machine,slammin the track button to try and readjust the head, the endless adjustments to the head which meant removing the player from my 69 Bug etc, etc Aint technology grand !!!!!!:D

I still have all my old 8 tracks and my old 70's stereo. So many memories. I still have my Stones 8-track I paid $2 for back in the 70's brand new. Can't get cd's that cheap lol. Those were the good old days... :)
