Revisiting the 8-Track with a New 1975 Pioneer HR-99 Recorder

The Techmoan 2013 Christmas Holiday Special (I open a parcel in it).
A look at the 8-Track Cartridge system. An explanation of the technology, what can go wrong, how to repair it and the unboxing and demonstration of a 1975 8-Track Recorder that's been stored away, new and unused, in it's box, for close to 40 years.

Note - a few seconds of audio in the video are muted due to a manual content claim being pursued by the owners of Michael Jackson's music - because hey like he needs it now and Beat It hasn't earned enough money already.
