Oh Yes,  I didn't make that clear. You don't need blank tapes at all.

As  a matter of fact you don't even need to record over the tapes as they 
exist
since you'll be recording over them with the recording heads of the Space 
echo.
Of course If you want to be minty clean and have no buried sounds wiping 
them
with a good bulk eraser would also help but in reality you can use 
prerecorded
8track tapes out of their case just fine.
