You could check Discogs. Here's an I&W cassette:

...and a white label promo (is that what you meant by "white" cassette?), for more $$:

Do cassette tapes still work?  ???

I've been re-discovering cassettes lately and I'm having a blast.

They pretty much force you to listen to other songs to get to the hits and there's a lot of hidden gems that would easily be missed these days with auto-generated playlists and shuffle/skip options.

I have a few Walkmans that I wear at work and the kids *cough* under 30 *cough* get a real kick out of it and then I show them my brown briefcase of tapes and they go nuts.  The real trouble is the belts break due to old age and are tough to replace sometimes.

As for tapes still working... it's mostly yes but the tape can be warped anywhere and you'll never know where until you listen to the entire thing and then, of course, the flip side will be warped at the same spot as well.  There's no way to fix it either.

I've also started to make some new mixtapes of modern stuff and they really sound great.

I bought a plow truck over the winter (2003 Ford F350) and it still had it's stock radio, which is a CD/Cassette/Radio.  The antenna is broke, so no radio, and something is off with the CD, so no CD, but I can listen to my old cassettes just fine!  What a blast!

Why wouldn't they work?

If you have a working cassette player, they will work, unless they've been damaged in some way.  I suppose there could be some degradation in some really old cassettes that have been played a lot.
