Thread Name: cassette tape stuck in player
Subject: cassette tape stuck in player
Possibly like many here I still have a small number of commercially-recorded cassette tapes (souvenirs of festivals long ago, Tom Paxton and John McCutcheon among them) and last week thought I would see if they still played. Unfortunately the first one I tried stuck in the player, and now I can't open the door to remove it....it makes a continual clacking noise. The unit was bought several years ago and the radio works beautifully as does the CD player, so chucking it seems a waste.

Any ideas about how to open the door and free the (by now probably useless) tape?
