"The Player" = the original recorder that he used? This may give some clue as to the type of tape - make/model, sometimes speed and track configuration are specified on front panel, sometimes on the rear.
Take great care with the tapes. It may be best to spool them backwards and forwards prior to playing. You might want to investigate if you can do this on your machine without 'lacing' the tape via the headblock, to reduce any wear on the tape. I routinely do this with my tapes from the late 1970s, which are showing signs of their age.
Ask here or PM me if you want to discuss more.
