I fondly remember Jet Records/CBS with ELO and Ozzy Osbourne. That's a great looking store, even if it's all French and stuff

Some old post-punk
Haven't posted to this thread for a while...
Soft Cell: Non-Stop Ecstatic Dancing
1982 Sire / Some Bizarre 1-23694 Mastered at Sterling (Jack Skinner) Vinyl E++
Dancy stuff there, last track is the infamous "Sex Dwarf."
Wire: The Ideal Copy
1987 Enigma / Mute SWAO-73270 Mastered by Capitol, Pressed in Carrolton (don't know who cut the lacquers) Vinyl: bought STILL SEALED in December '15!
The first Wire album I ever heard, I was hopelessly hooked afterward. Love this band!
Wire: (Self Titled, 2015)
2015 Pink Flag PF22LP Mastered at Skye by Denis Blackham, Lacquers cut by Pete Norman at Finyl Tweak
As much as I absolutely love this band, this record is a sore disappointment. It's too "mainstream pop" for my liking. Although it's pop as only Wire can do, there's too muckin' futch of it. Both sides end with what sounds like a funeral dirge. And where's Graham Lewis? Not one song was sung by Graham! DISAPPOINTMENT!

The Band - Cahoots
(1971, Capitol)
includes a nice cover of Dylan's When I Paint My Masterpiece - always reminds me how much fun it was to explore the streets of Rome on a visit with family a few years ago:
Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble,
Ancient footprints are everywhere.
You can almost think that you're seein' double
On a cold, dark night on the Spanish Stairs.

That can't be more than 45 minutes long, can it?
I can send you a couple blanks for your trouble later on, I'm tapped for this one, paid for everything I had to and most importantly, Charmin moved in and I can do the paperwork.
You use the Phoenix Chrome yourself, I've got mine and maybe EIGHT Metal LE 60s left as well as Web's Sony Metal XR 60s. I also have immense amounts of my Fujis or XLII or even Communicators and TDK D to use for my donor and as Nando will soon report, just over 50 less really nice tapes from my stash of hundreds.
If I'm fortunate I still have the original Jcard too!

Album time is only 34:51, that is truly Country music territory. I have one last Maxell Communicator Series C45 that would work, I don't mind. AND I still have your address, so there are a couple nice NOS blanks I can work in.
I have to pay my $5 pledge to OPB radio first! It just finally got here...but I've probably got something I can do for that this month and postage, I paid of all the rest.
