    Exceptionally bad. I only listened for a few minutes and couldn't listen any more. I'd still go with We Built This City as Hell's theme. I'm reasonsbly certain of this.

      interspliced with Its a Small World from the Disney ride, trust me I was stuck on it for 20 minutes or so and it was hell.

                HOE-lee S#!t

                I worked at Kmart in the late 80s and actually remember this music fondly. I never thought I would hear it again. I met my wife at Kmart when we were both college student employees. We often talk about KMRTEEeeeeEE, which featured the wonderful Rick Astley (Kmart is what I think of when someone Rick-Rolls me). She will be surprised to hear this.
                If I had only spent a tenth of the time studying Physics that I spent learning Star Wars and Baseball trivia, I would have won the Nobel Prize.

                  Now if this was Two Guys in the 70's...

                  I remember we had a similar system when I worked at The Gap in the Oxford Valley Mall during the early 80's. Except we didn't use cassettes. Instead, corporate sent these large 8-track looking tapes. They were about 2-3 times bigger than 8-tracks, but worked the same way- endless which could be switched between tracks, but not fast-forwarded or rewound. The stores also each had special players.

                  They played all kinds of pop music from the early 80's. The selection was more akin to a K-Tel collection moving from Bruce Springsteen to Flock of Seagulls to Kenny Logins. I used to know just when to switch tracks to catch a song I liked.
                  WANTED - Solid-Boxed WGSH's, C.8 or better.

                    I worked there in the late eighties too. I remember endless replay of red red wine, and the Moody Blues I know you're out there somewhere with some other really bad 80's music. actually I like the Moody Blues but after hearing that song in endless replay every night, it got old really fast
