I had the same reaction, I thought he was dead. His show was fun when I was a kid and I am as old as dirt, or so I thought. I still have cassette tape of his Christmas songs. If other bloggers do not know what a cassette tape is, google it, I had enough trouble explaining it to my 14 year old.

I recently had a similar conversation with a 17 yr old about 8-Tracks, 78's, and punch-cards.

Heck, I think I have some cassette cylinders packed away somewhere. They are Dolby stereo, though.

LOL. I was enthralled with cassette tapes and recording music on them. I remember my Dad bought me a portable cassette player/recorder, and I snuck it into a Foreigner concert back in the 70's.

The music was so loud that it completely overwhelmed the built-in microphone, and I ended up with a cassette tape of nothing but distortion.

I have 3 children now, one who is 21. I'm not even gonna attempt to explain what a cassette tape is to them.
