Restoration of Monarchy

A cassette I advertised for free in Beef Magazine in 1985 for free. Henning Metnedorff's art work. I think 6 or 7 people asked for a free copy. It's hard to even give good art work away.

Comment by Valentine Mark Herman on August 25, 2013 at 2:35pm: Amen.

I have about 900 45's, 800 33's, 1000 cassettes and NO digital music wwhatsoever.

I also have some video casset, but remember trying to record something from the radio on a big ole Grundig machine.

I bought a great vintage Sony Walkman cassette/radio at a flea market 2 weeks ago. Alas the cassette player doesn't play, but the radio and the Walkman are fine.

Comment by James Hill on August 25, 2013 at 7:10am: It was an analog world for sure. There is nothing like a reel of 1/2 inch Ampex recording tape. Or a box of 100 blank high bias 60 minute cassette tapes ready for the dubbing. Tape never betrayed anyone. Unlike the untrustworthy digital world where art can be lost in a heart beat. Times do change. But I am happy to say I still have my Tascam 8 track and box of qtips on hand to keep the tape heads clean. It's comforting to see it still in the studio. God save the tape recorder.

1985 -- black and white photocopies, cassettes, postal mail art: those were the days!
