Thumbs up Factory Pontiac 8 track tapes

F/S I have 2 Pontiac 8 track tapes available, for those that don't know, these were given out at dealerships to customers who bought cars equipped with 8 track players, back when 8 tracks were the "next big thing" neat dealer collectible! they have a factory part# too! both have a cardboard cover, both are in good shape, the one with the white label, the label is starting to loosen up alittle would need re glued at some point. $20 shipped EACH, or $35 shipped for both! (also have 1 Chevy and 1 Oldsmobile tapes available as well if anyone is interested)

Jackie Gleason sang? Liza Minelli songs, no less?

You ever played these tapes, Marty?

i should post that i can't find a production date on these anywhere. the 3 non pontiac tapes i have are clearly marked 1968, i believe these are later than that being they have cardboard sleeves vs the plastic hardshell cases the non pontiac ones have.

As far as I know, he didn't sing nor could he read or write music but was a very successful 'bandleader' and 'composer'. He was the creator of what was called "Mood Music" and I think he actually may have coined that term. The Honeymooners theme song was one of his creations.
One of his albums still holds the record for remaining in the top ten for the longest number of weeks...something like 3 years straight... and he sold many millions of instrumental albums during the '60s.
Talented guy ol' Jackie.
