In addition to scanning the covers and giving information about each tape I am offering one musical selection from each tape as a kind of compilation.
Full disclosure: In most cases I have not asked the artists if posting a song by them is OK. In some cases I cannot even find the artist listed. If my posting of your music does not please you let me know and I will remove it immediately. These are not being offered for sale but for historical perspective and illustration.
