This was right after a rewind? If so, then that's not an Amanda tape.
Or it cannot be read.
Try this with this tape:
mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind
dd if=/dev/nst0 bs=32k count=1
This should display the Amanda label.

You're correct that you have to have the right tape mounted before you
run amrestore. But I think something else is wrong with your tapes.
