4-track or 8-track depends on how many mics you're going to be recording from. For example, a 4-track recording would require 4 mics, etc. so really it depends on how many mics you either have or can get your hands on. 8-track+ will allow more individual editing and mixing to be done, but it's not necessary. It also depends on whether you're all going to be recording your parts simultaneously or separately.
