It just doesn't sound the same :-)

'ALVIN!' Chipmunks, David Seville Are Back

Forty-eight years ago, songwriter Ross Bagdasarian was taking a drive through California's Yosemite National Park when a chipmunk scampered out in front of his car and stared him down in the way a matador might challenge a charging bull. Almost 50 years later, the Chipmunks - Alvin and his brothers Simon and Theodore - are still singing - voiced now by Bagdasarian's son and his son's wife, Janice Karman. With the release this week of the DVD of 1987's feature film, "The Chipmunk Adventure," Bagdasarian and Karman are also at work on a script for a new movie they hope will be ready in time to mark the Chipmunks' 50th birthday.

There's also something about those voices, created by recording Bagdasarian's and Karman's voices on analog tape, then speeding it up. They tried switching to digital recording in recent years, Bagdasarian said, but it just didn't sound the same. ;D

Gotta love PROGRESS :-\
 
Do you have a copy of the Chipmunks on 8-track? The way Jody Dean and friends were raving about 8-tracks this morning, I'll bet you'll have one installed at KLUV shortly...
 
Hey i loved my 8track. Back when i was 17 in the early 70's i bought 4 8tracks:Rolling StonesBlack SabbathDeep PurpleRod StewartAnd a top 40 Hits 8track. Remember those? All your favorite singles. Aah the good ol days before corporate greed.The only problem with 8track was when i was digging on War Pigs and Paranoid and it skipped into a different track right in the middle of the song. That sucked!
