SAVE THEM ALL. When you die ... someone can throw them away.
I'm 70 years old; been playing in bands since 1961-62. I have a ton of cassettes from the last two bands I played with (Bass). The first was 1972 to 1982. The second was 1982 to 2008! I also have CDs and DVDs ... but the cassettes are PRICELESS as the bands are gone and some of the members dead ... they can NEVER be replaced, the music can't be replaced, the cassettes can't be replaced.
Find a good, small suitcase and store them in the main part of the house (not the basement or attic) where the temperature and humidity are more stable. Also ... wouldn't hurt to copy them onto DVDs or another set of cassettes.
If you wife gives you grief ... tell her some REALLY OLD GUY, who know of which he speaks, told you to save them.
