Tape plays VERY SOLID. A couple wooshy up/down moments during Rosa Parks on side A and a little during the opening of side B.
The tape looks like it somehow got into a litter box or some kind of carpet powder, as it has an artificial fragrance.
I have cleaned my deck after playing this tape several times now and it all seems to be fine. Someone with the ambition to do so could likely open this up, wipe it out, and have it looking shiny again.
Grades: Sleeve/media. Generally cosmetic and I will indicate if something plays less than flawless.
