I'm sure it still plays, but the speakers were shot by '75 .... It was meant for Bing Crosby.... not Zeppelin IV or Machine Head cranked to 11  .

I also used a match book as a points gap tool in an emergency. Do you remember points? Rotors? Condensers?

^^^ I never had an 8 track that didn't require a matchbook as a shim.
Maybe it was the bumpy/back roads back then...lol

There are probably more 8-track tapes still around than matchbooks! I never had to use one..... But...
8-tracks .... supposedly designed with 4 tracks with two of each, L & R for stereo. I recall the Allman Brothers' Beginnings tape had a penchant for playing 1 track (L) of a song with the (R) track being a totally different song.... And y'all wonder how I got this way ?

He has a huge curated collection of 78s and it's mind blowing that dirty, drug fueled music was popular even in the 20s and 30s.
