I'd love to find the Doobie Brothers on 8 track. They were a good band back in the day.

Didn't that Doobie Brothers Greatest Hits come standard with every 8 track player! The Shaun Cassidy one was a hot player in my youth as well! I remember almost every tape in my parents travel box, including these hot platters....

Johnny Cash's Greatest Hits
Beach Boys, Wow, Great Concert
Jim Croce Greatest Hits
Floyd Cramer
The Archie's

Oh, the days of the 8 track tapes were great ones, only trumped by that Akai reel to reel!!! Geof

My high school graduation present back in '69 was having a Motorola 8-track player installed in my '66 A100.

Later on I put a Pioneer Supertuner FM/8-track with a Craig poweramp and 4 6X9s in my '74 B300, hot stuff at the time. I have a lot of good memories of cruising around delivering pizzas with the tape player cranked up playing Led Zep, Pink Floyd, Robin Trower, Hendrix, Doobies, J. Geils, Allman Bros, and on and on.

I believe that Bill Lear of Learjet fame is the inventor of the 8-track player.

I remember the matchbook trick too. Something else that helped sometimes was cocking the tape sideways to load or unload pressure on the drivewheel.
