[QUOTE="kayvee, post: 481333, member: 13424"] Interesting. You'd be seriously lucky if it be working after all these years. I struggled to get them working at all even when brand new. Back in the day, I purchased an 8-track player plus a bunch of tapes. After rushing home to get into the new-found format, I encountered endless problems getting them to play reliably. After a couple of frustrating days I eventually took the whole shebang back to the store and had them swapped out for a Sony 4-track cassette deck with wood veneer side panels, which I still have today. Storekeeper wasn't surprised at all. Fond memories of listening to Eric Claptons 461 Ocean Boulevard on 8-track over and over again in the back seat of my then girlfriend's (now wife's) brother's Rotary Mazda. Must have been the only tape he had. But I digress...... [/QUOTE]
