Karaoke Booth Tape - Part 1
Remember those booths at malls and amusement parks where you could sing along to your favorite songs karaoke style and get a souvenir cassette to take home? I’ve found a number of these tapes at yard sales and thrift stores over the years and they’ve always been a good source of amusement.
