Great selection of well known songs from this legendary group of the '60's and '70's
THE HOLLIES - Hollies
Axis Records
Cat# TC-AX-701247
Australian release
Dolby B encoded
1986
Cassette packaging is in very good condition, with only very light scuff marks to the clear front section but no cracking. Front cover insert is in very good condition, clean and with no writing or markings.
Inspected the front pressure pad and side rollers, they are all fine. This is a screw type clamshell so if something ever went awry with the tape inside e.g in need of relube or other maintenance, then you will have access inside without much difficulty but watch out otherwise you may end up with a room full of tape!
Test machine, my Nakamichi 480
Keep in mind that this is Dolby encoded, if your tape machine does not have Dolby capability then it may be advisable to lower the Treble on your amplifier just a little.
Before playing, I have repacked the tape (complete FF & RW cycles a couple of times), and then played both sides ENTIRELY - there are no issues with the shell or tape at all, audio is full range with no "drop outs" or high frequency loss across both sides.
This is a really nice playback!
