Frank Sinatra And Count Basie It Might As Well Be Swing Reprise Cassette Tape

This was the 2nd Reprise album where Sinatra worked with the legendary Jazz pianist and conductor Count Basie. As this release was most popular during the 8-track tape era, it is not terribly easy to find in the cassette format.

Kihnsolidation The Best of GREG KIHN Rhino Beserkley Cassette Tape

Greg Kihn's Kihnsolidation cassette (Rhino/Beserkley) is very hard to find since cassettes were no longer a popular format by the time it was released and Greg Kihn was no longer a popular musician by the time of its release. Many Rhino greatest hits collections of this nature are quite scarce.

PAUL SIMON Hearts And Bones Audio Cassette Tape

This 1983 Paul Simon cassette, the flop release sandwiched between his "One Trick Pony" and "Graceland" albums, is scarce in cassette largely because nobody bought this poorly-received album in any format. Originally intended to be a Simon & Garfunkel reunion album, this release has gradually gained more approval from critics and fans as the years have gone on and more people have actually given the album a chance.

Two of Elton John's best early albums on one cassette - including the big radio hits "Tiny Dancer" and "Levon".
