C30 60 90 Go!


I'll always have a place in my heart for my very first cassette recorder. A Sanyo portable that I got for my 12th birthday.

I used to spend many an hour with the radio on and my fingers poised over the record button waiting to capture my favourite songs.

Which is why a felt a touch of nostalgia for a time long gone when I came across this link to a fantastic Flickr set of cassette inserts and labels.

Well worth a look for anyone who loves music.

I used to do the same thing - I kept the cassettes and still have radio station stings and DJ sound grabs from the early 1970s along with hours of recordings of pre- and post-glam rock and never-ending ponderous tracks by progressive rock bands like EL&P and Yes.

my sister and i recorded the audio to encino man ('cos we didn't have a video recorder) and learned the whole thing, word for word: two sides of a 240 TDK, clear case, white label, gold trim. bu-uddy..
