Lot #2146: Vintage 8-Track Tape Lot – James Last, Engelbert Humperdinck, Johann Strauss, London Philharmonic + Realistic, RCA & Muntz Head Cleaner/Demagnetizer C

Collection of 8-track tapes, with five music tapes plus three head cleaning cartridges to keep your 8-track player in top shape! This lot comes from the estate of a dedicated radio and audio hobbyist who spent over 50 years working on, servicing, and collecting vintage radios and audio equipment. True to form, he kept his own handwritten notes on the tapes: “OK” on the two James Last tapes and “Very Good” on the Vienna tape. The music side is perfect for easy listening and orchestral fans. It includes two James Last albums, “James Last in Concert” and “Rollin’ Home with Captain James,” both on Polydor. You’ll also get Engelbert Humperdinck’s “His Greatest Hits,” “Greatest Hits of Johann Strauss” by the Vienna Strings, and “Pops Concert in Vienna” by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Douglas Gamley. Just as useful are the three maintenance cartridges. There’s a boxed Realistic (Radio Shack) 44-8015 Head Demagnetizer & Cleaner Cartridge with a head cleaner, capstan cleaner, track switch test and demagnetizer in one unit. There’s also a boxed RCA Head Cleaning Tape Cartridge and a Muntz 8-Track Head Cleaner. This is the perfect companion to the 8-track decks in this auction, including the Realistic TR-801 and the Candle JS9043!
