8 track was the audio recording system before cassette tapes. They looked a bit like old school Nintendo cartridges
an electronic item that plays cassette tapes. A "tape deck" is a device used to play cassette or 8-track tapes. They are fairly obsolete now, but until CDs became the rage, tapes were used regularly. There were also 4 track tape decks. Magnovox was a leader in producing tape decks. You would get them installed in your car just as you would CD players.
I"ll Be seeing you. By the way to my knowledge, he did not record singles. He did record albums and 8 track tapes incuding a Christmas album.
8-Track Tapes and Cassette Tapes were in between Vinyl and CDs. So there was no real transition from Vinyl to CD. Vinyls have never stopped being produced.
When I bought an 8-track player for my '79 Jeep CJ7, some of my friends made fun of me because they were all getting cassette players for their cars. Loved that Jeep. Loved that 8-track cranking out Jessi Coulter, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson.It was the cassette tape that replaced the 8-track, and cassettes had a good long run until the CD took over.
Vinyl records were produced long before 8 track tapes were made.
1973! That the cassette by itself but the cassette player came out in 1980 Nope. This cannot be correct, because I owned a cassette player and plenty of cassettes for it too, at least 3 years before that (when I was in Vietnam). And they were not a new technology when I bought mine. I also owned an 8-track tape player with tapes. I always wanted a reel-to-rell because they were supposed t be the best of all. But I never got around to getting one.

The value of eight track tapes is actually dependent upon a number of factors. Some of these factors include the condition and popularity of the specific eight track tape in question.
Yes
There is not an album that has the song Go Rest High as the first song on the CD. This is the third song on the track.
The first 8-track tapes came out in 1964 and gained popularity by 1967. They lasted until the late 1970's in the US.
