Left/Right difference on my tapes - is it the cassettes or player or nothing to worry about?

Hi all

I've been putting some of my tapes onto hard drive and noticed that most of them are not "balanced"; either the left or right channel always seems a bit louder than the other....

Is this normal? A sign of a problem with the tapes? Or a sign of a problem with the player?

Apologies in advance if it is a daft question. I don't know a great deal about tapes.

Cheers

Max
