My first encounter with 8 track tape was in the early 70s at a neighbor's house who had slightly more money than us, and they had a "Quad-8", which was a brief phase of quadrophonic home music.

Driving four independent channels meant tapes had half the run time of stereo, and it also required a special mix to be created, so it never really caught on. Most units had two heads, for four channels of stereo sound instead. I am pretty sure we literally had the one shown above in our living room at one point.

The cool trick of 8 track was it was an endless circular tape, so no rewinding necessary. Or possible, for that matter. You could only fast-forward until the loop point, when the unit would automatically switch to the next channel, then you could manually trigger the head to move back to the channel you just left.

It was a popular car accessory because 8 tracks were very rugged. Fond memories of cruising in our 76 Chevy K5 Blazer with 8 track and CB Radio, listening to Neil Diamond belt out "Kentucky Woman".

Unfortunately, when you split an album meant for a 2-sided record across four channels instead, you get really awkward breaks (looking at you, Tubi) where the system changed channels in the middle of a song, usually with a little fade-out, followed by a mechanical clunk, and fade in:

KENTUCKY WOMAN! IF SHE GET TO Know you. .

CHUNK

.. she gOING TO OWN YOU! KENTUCKY WOMAN!

(Tbh we knew 8 track sucked, even back in the day)
