I would love to find a cassette like that in the wild. Thanks for finding the videos too.

I wonder which boombox came with that cassette. Based on the style of music, I would guess a 1970s boombox - maybe an RC-8xx series?

JVC always loved to Jazz it up.

I remember those summer events sponsored by JVC.

Here's a little history behind JVCs love towards Jazz.

The market then was really booming when Metal tapes were introduced. The prices were pretty expensive for those times but the quality spoke for itself.

Interesting read on this archived magazine it even has a Disco section how I would love to go back when it was more fun then.
