I decided to see if the old cassette deck was working today, and by "decided," I mean I just wanted to play the cassette album of The Jets that I've had since I was six so I tried. Cassette got stuck in the player, did not play. I had to gently pry the cassette door open and release the tape from a roller. A bit of the plastic cassette housing broke. I tried the second cassette deck in the dual-deck. It played fine.

I should buy the CD.

1979 Vintage Audio Equipment Stack in Living Room

The image depicts a collection of vintage audio equipment, such as record players and cassette decks, stacked on top of each other. In the background, there is a glimpse into another room where an individual appears to be standing near a window or doorway, with outdoor scenery visible through it.

The photo captures the era's technology which includes large components typical for home audio systems in that time period.
These devices are designed for high-fidelity sound reproduction and were popular before digital music players became widespread.
