Nostalgia that's what it's all about and we all have our own favourite thing. Regarding CDs from the early days I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole , then after a very informative chat at an
Dear All,
Any pointers or comments would be greatly appreciated.
My car is from 1982 and so is my car audio ie pioneer tape deck ("with" auto reverse!!😏) My question is in 2 parts and i will keep it concise (ish).
1. Does anybody sell cassette tapes anymore? ie I'm talking really about the ubiquitous rare northern modern soul compilations which were around, a guy in Camden market had millions of the things for a fiver each but i am going back 25 years or so, is this something that nowadays you just simply can't buy because there is no market for it, or am i looking in the wrong places and tape selling and swapping still exist?
2. I know a friend of mine had Sam Dees "The show must go on" and Luther "this close to you" both on cassette and I am certain from memory they were legit releases but can't find any evidence of their existence anywhere. I remember cassette tapes being around all over the place, but where have they gone? did people chuck them, tape over them, were they destroyed? or simply did a huge amount of great soul albums throughout the 70s 80s only get a vinyl release?
As requested, any help with this would be appreciated as I'm getting a little bored of Olivia Newton Johns Greatest hits and Boogie Tunes Volume 1 both on a loop. Before you ask no i am NOT prepared to dump my pioneer cassette "with" auto reverse😏
Big Thankyou
