#nowplayimg #cassettesontheshelf #tape #cassette This tape still sounds amazing (bought it when new) and the music could have easily been made yesterday. The 6th album by INXS “Kick”, New Sensation was the point of entry for me.

One of my go-to’s from Talking Heads, “Fear Of Music” was released August 3, 1979. “Life During War Time” has always been a top favorite! This ain’t no Mud Club, or CBGB, I ain’t got time for that now! 😁🎸🍻 Catalog : Sire SRK 6076 Produced by Brian Eno & The Talking Heads

Not the Easter Beagle, but It’s Flashbeagle, Charlie Brown! From 1984, on the heals of Flashdance, Snoopy takes his turn. Featured in the special, Stacy Ferguson (later known as Fergie). This is my “B” copy with the mint “A” copy safely inside but still sounds good.

Released on this day 44 years ago, “British Steel” by Judas Priest, still rocks today! 🤘🏻 One of the first guitar riffs I learned to play was “Breaking The Law”. Fun one to play along to 🎸 Great video too where they steal their gold records out of the bank! Rob Halford said he

Released 53 years ago today, Janis’ 2nd and final solo LP, “Pearl”. My personal favorite of her all too brief life and discography, showing how she was evolving as a singer and songwriter, at the top of her game. Janis Joplin - Pearl Catalog: Columbia KC 30322, Terre Haute

Release on this day in 1989, “The Sensual World” by Kate Bush. Her 6th album and for me the first record and song (Love and Anger), I heard from Kate. Incredible record and featuring a super sharp guitar solo by David Gilmore on Love and Anger and Rocket’s Tail. Columbia OC

So y’all know me pretty well by now. If a stereo component sits in one spot for more than a month…something is wrong! 🤣 My old TEAC is deciding to be an a$$ again tripping the protection circuit (did this years back at random) so I swapped for my Kenwood KR-3130 for my garage
