1982

Case and insert are in excellent condition
Clam shell is in very good condition, this is a welded type clam shell so if ever there was a need to re-lubricate or change the pad, access inside the clamshell is going to be a problem.
Test cassette machine: Nakamichi DR8
Prior to testing, tape was repacked (FF - RW - FF - RW) to ensure even tape loading. This should always be done with compact cassettes that have been stored for a while, repacks the tape.
Tape media is in very good visual condition, but the only real way to judge the condition of magnetic tape media is to actually play it, so I have played both sides of this tape.
Audio is full range and bright, full high end and lows. Sounds great. No drop outs. No tape sticking or other transport issues which could indicate dried out lubricant. Head pad is in place and secure.
Tracks: I Am An Island, Universal, Spellbound, Flow In Motion, The Best Years Of Our Lives, Syncopation Train, I Fought The Law, All Night Long, Walk On Water
