The only exposure i had to 4-track tapes was about 1970 or 71 when my Dad was loading a big box full of them into his car from my grandparents house - to throw into the dumpster where he worked.
They looked normal to me [like an 8-track best i remember at about 7 y.o.]
Why are they trashing all these ?
Old 4-tracks son, can't play them anymore .
That was the first and last time i ever heard anything about a 4-track tape.
They sure died fast and hard
I ran 8-tracks up through about 81 or 82.
Later in life when i learned Pontiac offered cassette players starting in 1971 or 1972 , i was kind of shocked by that.
