The Cassette Tape Gallery

I like the idea of giving old tapes a second life by scanning, digitizing and uploading them. Perhaps we can create a nice mixtape gallery. I want to start with the B-Side of a tape I made very quickly just before going on a long journey. Something I always do before leaving home for a while.It's mostly brazil and latin stuff and a little latinesque fusion towards the end.Enjoy!

    Despite nobody else is contributing to the gallery I carry on. The mix has been posted already in another thread.

    First I had to google who Dick Vitale is to confirm that he isn't. It's a photo out of a small series of anonymous bavarian people doing snuff tobacco, which I found a thrift store a while ago. There's weird stuff turning up there.

    Oh okay..gotcha. It's funny how popular snuff was with the old folks back in the day. You not terribly uncommon to find an ol' Granny doing it here (SC).

    My grandfather (r.i.p.) used to have some snuff in his bedroom in his apartment, which sometimes he left open. As a kid I was always told "don't go in there, don't go in there" and the one time I went in there, there was nothing but a bed, clothes, table, the usual. I guess he wanted his place to be "his place" and no one elses but... I always used to wonder "what is that little jar?" and my mom told me her dad did snuff. So I was like "cocaine?" What did I know?

    This is a really great idea for a thread. I'm going to try to contribute...but it won't be anytime soon.

    I'm bookmarking it though.

    Nice, I like the typographical chaos of stacked cassette backs. It's fun to look at each of these.

    His tapes were great, the first one i bought was Vol. 6. I know I still have them too. A few of these I should convert to WAV > MP3 and upload them somewhere, or at least some of my own custom mix tapes.

    That somewhere is this thread. That's the intention. Keep'em coming.

    I'll track down what I have and post it to my site later in the week.
