8-Track Mind #105: The Politicization of 8-Track
$ 4.00

30 years into its bizarre and storied history, 8-Track Mind Magazine brings us the 105th issue. Nostalgia and rants exist alongside a history of the Radiant/Altone bootleg label, and plenty of oddball voices you don't see grace the pages of zines much anymore.

Editor Russ Forster's "Afterwardword" is maybe my highlight, though, documenting the brief period of time in the 1990s when 8TM was being courted by mass media and why the zine editorial team's decision to not to cash in was ultimately for the best.

40 pages, half-letter size.
