I was just trying to remember all the songs I had in the best mix tape ever in one of those.

That design is about as 1990 as you can get

I had so many Nirvana bootlegs on these things. :,)

You bet I did…

The assembling of a phonograph cylinder is a most delicate art. One must commence with a vigorous air to seize the lady’s attention. Thereafter, proceed to a tender ballad that appeals to her heart… and at the last, insert a spirited Sousa march, that she may know you are not all solemnity and sighs.

And I couldn’t tell if it was live, or if it was… …

I have one with the Violent Femmes and The Replacements on it.

Tomorrow, I’ll share it on !recordpics@piefed.social.

I had a bunch of these! Awesome design, loved it.

I had a few. I used whatever tape I could get. Think my fondest memory as a teen was tapping the Howard Stern Show. I was a weird teenager.

Those were cool! But you could only get the cheapies, no chrome or metal cassettes.

I was a TDK man myself.

Yep

Yeah, I mean - heh - sure, if you didn’t care about sound quality heh heh heh.

Now some gold Maxell II Epitaxial - ho ho! Now you’re talkin’ some crisp highs, smooth midrange, and a commanding but not over-present bass! Just as Thomas Dolby intended.
