Re: Does a recording of this exist? Anywhere?
I used to own an 8-track player and some tapes. I never had that happen, but I imagine that for a while, the tape would just keep playing, slowing down as it did. If you let it go long enough, I imagine it'd start to sound like a broken cassette, where the speed becomes unstable and it really starts slowing down a lot, then eventually just stops. Of course, pulling the cartridge out would reveal a huge wad of tape in the player. I had one tape break at the splice, but fortunately for me, it broke in such a way that the beginning of the tape loop hadn't reached the part of the machine that pulls it in, so the tape just stopped playing, although the motor kept running. At that point, there was no way to fix it without opening the cart, since one of the loop ends was inside.
