Vivid Sounds
The 8-tracks I won from ebay came. 22 tapes for $5.24 including shipping. That's what I like: a deal. Screw paying a lot for a muffler! Or an 8-track. I bought this lot with this fuzzy picture and no title list because I could see they were Vivid Sounds label and N. A. L. (North American Leisure Corp.) Brands I know and trust! And don't have too many of them already.
Here's what I got:

-Columbia Musical Treasury Orchestra- Moonlight Nocturne, VS-110-8-TQ (Broke already.)
-Columbia Musical Treasury Orchestra - A Very Good Year, VS-103-8-TQ
-Combo Royale - A Tribute to Dave Brubeck, VS-106-8-TQ
-Combo Royale - A Tribute to Stan Getz, VS-105-8-TQ (Have it already.)
-Don Costa and his Orchestra - Hollywood Premier, VS-132-8-TQ
-Don Costa and his Orchestra - Hits, Hits Hits, VS-131-8-TQ
-Bobby Hackett - Plays the Music of Bert Kaempfert, VS-136-8-TQ
-Lionel Hampton - Soft Vibes Soaring Strings, VS-129-8-TQ (Got this one too.)
A couple of these Vivid Sounds tapes have more info than usual.

"Recorded on superior quality Certron polyester magnetic tape using the exclusive full range BIASONIC(R) duplicating process to assure the ultimate in stereophonic sound. Unauthorized duplication is prohibited by law. Tapes are sold for consumer use only. Certron Corp., Anaheim, CA."

Another one says "The music contained within is a product of C.B.S. Direct Marketing Services." Must've been a mail order or T.V. sold kinda thing. No dates on them.

The N. A. L. tapes are cool too. They say NAL SUPER STEREO 8 TWIN-PAK and A Subsidiary of Omega Equities Corporation. These have great cover designs.

-George Greeley - Love Themes, NL2-81629
-The Londonderry Strings and Jack Nitzsche and his Orchestra - Liverpool Revisited, NL2-81626
(Covers of She Loves You, I Saw Her Satnding There, House of the Rising Sun, Twist and Shout, You Really Got Me, etc.) Psyched! (Was awesome, but broke.)
-Various Artists - Spellbound, NL2-81613, Exotica-type stuff featuring Les Baxter, Esquivel, Nelson Riddle, etc. Excellent. Best exotica compilation I have yet, I think. Played well.

Already this lot is well worth the $5.24 to me and here's what else I got:
