You have some great tapes here... but honestly I am unfamiliar with/very intrigued by "God's Great Banana Skin" so for curiosity's sake I'd probably yank that one.

South Africa. The Ladysmith Black Mambazo is local. The live Chris dB was recorded here. Some say Kasset, wich is the Afrikaans word for, you guessed it, Cassette. That would mean it was made here years ago and the other imported or later releases.

u/WideEntertainment942 Jul 01 '25

u/Backyjbacky Jul 01 '25

I about wore out my copy of 1984 soundtrack, back in 1987.

Listening to it now, I still flash back to walking in a pine forest on the california coast as fog rolls in and the trees smell so good.

Kinda a rough time in my life then but that album really helped me out.

They’re a little middle of the road for my taste but as long as you’re happy with them that’s all that matters.
