  1. #8TrackTuesday #DeadFormats #HomeTapingIsKillingMusic

    This home taped #OtisRedding & #JimiHendrixExperience #8TrackCartridge eBay-find initially had me stumped. Where oh where had I seen those long legs on the original tape label peeking out from underneath at the bottom? Then I flashed on it: it's the Fool On The Hill album by #SergioMendesAndBrasil66, that easy-listening warhorse of conservative household music collections all across the US in the early 70s.

    Finally, Sergio M. is going to good use.

    (Also note: this taper went and split both "Satisfaction" and "Like a Rolling Stone" across programs - proof he/she was a truly sensible 8-track listener)

  4. She's now talking about getting the 8 Track Cartridge machine out of the loft to see if it works!

    No, just no!
    (Apart from the probability that the glue on the tapes has degraded, and I don't think I've got a standalone amplifier)
