I remember seeing one of these back in the day,



I never found out if it just repeated after a certain time or just slowed down or something,

[Fangirl Three]

Tape deck manuals always warned you not to use those.

Or C120s.

I gave my N*D tape deck away.

It did go to a good home though (and it wasn't the best example of its kind)

£92.00

Also, I've just remembered I had one of these when I was a youngster,



Until I blew on of the speakers after I'd plugged my guitar into the microphone socket and made it sound like:





And the string fell off the tuner, and the turntable never went up to 45, and it had trouble with 33 thinking about it,

I've just digitalised one of my old tapes, I'm on one side, the other side is a totally mystery, I wonder if what music I was into back in the day?



Led, freakin' Zepplin.




No wait, it's Robert Plant, live, I have no idea what this is from Off the radio? He's just introduced Jimmy Page. The guitar playing has just got worse.

[Guest]

Is it me or did it get a lot more ploddy in here?

[Guest]

I think this might be Knebworth that I taped off the radio.



I think it is, the tracks match up… June 30th 1990, blimey.

[Guest]

Radio 1!

Bloomin' heck, that wouldn't happen now.

Well, that's the end of that. What the heck's this?

[Guest]

I shall Shazam it.



One That Got Away by Southern Pacific

Must have been off the radio, at least I'd hope so.

[Guest]

Key Change. This is horrible.

[Guest]

It just cut out to start playing Special View by Simple Minds.

[Guest]

[Guest]

Oh gawd, The Tom Robinson Band's first album, one of the more obvious Punk bandwagon jumpers,



look at the state of em' That 70s rock haircuts, they must be at least 23!

still Grey Cortina,

[Guest]

I've still got this album, I don't think I've listened to it since about 1994

[Guest]

Something taped off the radio someone talking about Bee-bop Jazz? lolwut?

Ends with Tongebirge and Kristallo by Kraftwerk.



Still got this album too.

[Fangirl Three]

If there's one thing I love it's summaries of tapes people made 28 years ago. It's the sort of thing I'd post.

[Guest]

On another tape, I've just found a bit of Eastenders picked up on the on board mics, it's got Lofty and Michelle talking on it,

[Guest]

This exact scene





That was scarily easy to find,

[Guest]

OMG! It's Cassette Store Week!
