8-Track cartridge: STEELY DAN - COUNTDOWN TO ECSTACY - Q8 - 8-TRACK QUADRAPHONIC CARTRIDGE TAPE
Very Rare Q8 4-Channel 8-Track Quadraphonic Cartridge Tape. Tape has been in storage.
The box(sleeve) is in Very Good Condition with the original shrink wrap still on the box with only a slit made to allow the tape to be taken out and I assume played. The tape has the original price sticker from over 40 years ago and has nothing to do with our asking price today. It has not be removed in order to keep the original packaging of the tape.

PLEASE NOTE AND READ:
This tape is an 8-Track Cartridge Tape mostly manufactured in the 1960s and 1970s. This tape has been in storage for a little over 20 years in a cool and dry location. It is a cartridge tape originally made mostly for the automobile market in those years. However many players were available to be used inside the home within audio systems of that day in special 8-Track players made for home use so that you could play the tapes in both locations. Please note that you MUST HAVE a player of this type in order to use and play this tape.
Quadraphonic 8-Track tapes MUST BE USED in equipment (players) that are of the quadraphonic type made expressly for a quadraphonic system.
AGAIN: QUADRAPHONIC IS NOT NORMALLY PLAYABLE ON 2-CHANNEL STEREO EQUIPMENT.
I ASSUME that those not marked quadraphonic are made for more conventional 2-track systems.
PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE A SYSTEM AND CORRECT PLAYER TO PLAY THESE SPECIALLY MADE 8-TRACK TAPES.
