Soundtrak is coming back with Linda to do the commercials!

[MrBigglesworth]

Never thought I would see the day...

Linda Soundtrak returns to Oklahoma to shoot commercials promote new store | OKG Scene.com

They are going to open a new store across the street from the original up on Penn/Hefner.

I know Verin won't have an ownership interest but how the store develops will be interesting to watch.

Much (everything) has changed on the retailing landscape since Soundtrak went out of business: the Internet, proliferation of huge discount chains, etc.

Hard to imagine how a small local store could compete as even big chains like Circuit City have given up.

I thought Ultimate Electronics used to be called Soundtrak at one time.

[MadMonk]

Great googley moogley...NO!

Though it's pretty fun to watch the old commercials and the products that they featured back then.

[Doug Loudenback]

What a hoot!

[mugofbeer]

This is another example of "What could have been....". They were out and growing before Best Buy and Circuit City were really going strong. They could have been nationwide if they'd played their financial cards right.

Well, so long as everything old is becoming new again, I wanna use the time machine from the other thread and go back and get the Molly Murphy's folks and restart that lil' slice of fun too.

That way I can have loud, I can have obnoxious but I will get fed too!

Looks like the website has already launched, seems kind of generic to me.

Russell Kim - doesn't/didn't he run Audio Dimensions?

In any case, I don't think they will go far online with their website portion with prices like these:

I need to go find ear muffs.

[hoya]

Wow! I couldn't place them until I watched some of the old commercials on YouTube. Then it all came flooding back.

I remember thinking that Linda Soundtrak was kind of hot when I was a kid.

I thought Ultimate Electronics used to be called Soundtrak at one time.

That was SoundTrack, a Colorado based company. They changed the name of the SoundTrack stores to Ultimate Electronics in 2005.

The last I heard, yes.

Gotcha - the difference a 'c' makes.....

[Bunty]

Doesn' t Linda Soundtrak look too much like an old lady by now?

[gmwise]

She was the forerunner to the 1800 2 sellhomes and that are you christian are you single?
the unholy trinity of annoying commericals..

[purplemonkeythief]

where are the videos of the commercials on youtube? I have no idea who this is, I guess I'm too young.

YouTube - Linda Soundtrak TV Commercials

This is a block of 3 commercials with the same theme. They are the only surviving Soundtrak commercials that I have ever been able to find.

Id really like to see the one with the Chirstmas Jingle where they have people dressed up as Frosty and Rudolph all playing instruments and all that.

[grantgeneral78]

Wow that will be a time warp.....the scary thing is I still have the radio in my old truck she installed when they were on meridian.

I wonder if the warranty will still be good....hmmm

Nothing is as bad as the Oklahoma Discount Furniture commercials.

"SALE SALE SALE NOW at...
Oklahoma Discount Furniture
Oklahoma Discount Furniture
Oklahoma Discount Furniture
...3 great locations"

and "...Futons, futons, futons..."

The new Sonic of Hicksville couple gets mighty danged close on the annoy me meter.

[Chicken In The Rough]

Sloggo must be in college by now! I love that they are going to try a comeback. But, Penn & Hefner? Really?

[smooth]

Although most commercials now days are nothing but trash, I always liked Linda. Both on screen and in person. I hope they are like the old ones.

BTW. It's not Sloggo, it's Sluggo.

[theparkman81]

I am happy that they are bringing back Soundtrak, I do miss the old commericals, I know her voice used to get on my moms nerves when I was a kid, but anyways I hope their commericals will be like the old ones.

[MrBigglesworth]

Anyone seen the new ads yet? Maybe they wont air until after the store opens on Dec 11
