My dad bought one of those long console stereos w/the sliding doors on the top about the time I came around (68)
It had a record player, AM/FM on one side.... record storage in the middle and an awesome reel-to-reel tape deck on the other. The Mason Williams record came with the stereo. The album was hilarious. Prince's Panties was a family favorite.

I never knew this story behind this guy though, excellent find MLX

I know what you mean. We had one about as long as a couch: television in the middle, radio on the right, turn-table on the left, huge freaking speakers. We kept it long after the components were obsolete just because it was kind of a classy thing to have in a living room.

That song sounds like MacGyver theme music.

That's really interesting. I didn't know the history of Classical Gas.

I would LOVE to upvote this. But the problem is that it's giving me epileptic seizure.

AHhh whatever, upvoted!
