#NowPlaying #8TrackTuesday #DeadFormats

A triple whammy: a #quadraphonic #8Track of nothing but #Moog synthesizer. Just how much more 1970s can a piece of plastic get?

Hans Wurman - Chopin A La Moog - Quadraphonic 8-track tape, 4.0 Surround
A photo of a vintage red plastic 8-track cartridge tape entitled "Sonart Productions Inc. presents Chopin à la Moog . . . with lots of strings attached." Inset artwork includes a series of 6 illustrated headshots, morphing gradually from the 1st (a b&w drawing of Chopin in period garb) to the last (a hirsute hippie sporting a headband and lovebeads). Text beneath the artwork reads "arranged, conducted, and synthesized by Hans Wurman."

#8TrackTuesday #8TrackTape #NowPlaying #DeadFormats

The 1974 #8Track reissue of #TheVelvetUnderground's "White Light/White Heat" album - retitled "Archetypes" with enigmatic alternate cover artwork. I wonder who's beneath those motorcycle helmets?

A photo of a vintage black and grey 8-track cartridge tape entitled "ARCHETYPES" by The Velvet Underground. "Eight-track stereo tape cartridge" is printed at the bottom. Tape is still in shrink wrap. Inset photo shows two men standing in front of an E.W. Woolworth Co. storefront next to an old fashioned coin operated arcade machine. The men are dressed in loose, '70s-era jeans and leather jackets; both are wearing motorcycle helmets.
