Fresh Garbage Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I was cooking some dinner. and all of a sudden this came over me out of nowhere... has there ever been a Bootleg released on 8 track? with the bootleg craze going in the 70's, sombody had to have released at least one? and if so, I wonder what it would be worth... just picture Blueberry Hill on a two 8 track set.....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swandown Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Never seen a bootleg, but I've seen a few counterfeit/unauthorized 8-tracks, such as the Yardbirds Anderson Theater show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solar Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 I have a Springsteen bootleg on 8-track that was recorded from vinyl. Thing is, with the 8-track medium, it was more as a portable means of playing music from a record album. Once cassettes came along, it rendered 8-track obsolete. Are there Zep boots out there on 8-track? I'm sure there are. But I don't think they were unofficially "officially" released by boot companies, the same way tape copies weren't released. Vinyl and CDs were the boot companies' methods of choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeman Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Is the quality of 8-track recording (for instance - bootleg) better than the quality of usual compact cassette? And is there a chance that some of the Zep showes where taped with portable 8-track by audience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
