Childhood memories. I had several of these Radio Shack X-in-one kits growing up, where you page through hundreds of projects and build them by connecting wires through little springs.
To be honest, I did not learn much circuit theory building these. But it sure planted the bug for being interested in electronics, and eventually computers

Rare still-open RadioShack spotted in Brodheadsville, PA. Yes, they're still out there! This one is closed on Sundays though so I wasn't able to go inside.

“All Ears”, a 1977 compilation of songs about Citizens Band radio, which was available at Radio Shack (thus it coming out on the “Realistic” label, which was the brand name they used for their CB radios). Was also available on 8-track but not cassette or reel-to-reel.
Looking through the list of musicians, they actually had a few though you may not have heard of them. Some this was their only venture, others are fairly well established though under the radar (examples: Randy Goodrum is a legendary songwriter and his last album was released in 2020; Shirley & Squirrely produced a few Chipmunks-swag-jacking novelty singles and a Christmas record between 1976 and 1981).
Not the last time Radio Shack sold music at their stores -- folks my age remember when they had their own line of Superman comics to go along with The Story of Electronics comicbooks, too -- but definitely not the first either.

Radio Shack Blackjack game from the early 80s I got for $1 at a flea market because of course it didn't work, motor was shot. Luckily Digi-Key had an exact replacement. So it's more like a $10 purchase (mostly shipping), still not bad for the best handheld blackjack game around!
