8-Track Porno: Is It Smut Or Is It Memorex?

Porn is always quick to adapt to new technologies, from the dawn of photography to today's Blu-Ray/HD-DVD war. While many of these new forms of media work better than others (see: Atari porn games), there was always someone who thought it was a good idea at the time. Perhaps the most obscure form of pornographic distribution is the venerable 8-track cassette. Yes, that's right—porno scenes recorded onto 8-track tapes.

Since they're audio only, the stage directions and dialogue are even more delicious than your average porno. (Sample quote: "Now I'm sitting here with a banana up my hungry cunt.") It's the most salacious pulp radio theater you've ever heard (have you ever heard any before?) and for better or worse, someone has transferred some of these gems to MP3 so that 21st century freaks can enjoy the delicate sound of sexual thunder, complete with old-fashioned humming audio and suitable for dance party remixing. Now, if you'll excuse us, we're going to grab our CB radio and a couple of Earth, Wind and Fire albums—on 8-track, of course—and go find ourselves a highway convoy. -CW
