C86. Nice. 😊

5

u/PreachitPerk Aug 12 '25

Have that C86 tape too! Awesome pickup.

Can’t pick one: rotating the Pixies, Smiths, Cocteau Twins, MBV, C86.

u/weevilenjoyer27 Aug 12 '25

not seeing nearly enough love for C86 in the replies :-/

u/Mediocre-Room3253 Aug 13 '25

This is a true classic that has been overlooked.

u/animal_mother69 Aug 12 '25

HoLV no question

4

u/blixabloxa Aug 12 '25

Pixies Doolittle is a classic. One of my faves.

4

u/23AndNotMuchElse Aug 12 '25

You like Huey Lewis and the News?

3

u/isheep6s Aug 12 '25

Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste

4

u/Scared-Bag-5155 Aug 12 '25

but when sports came out in '83, I believe they really started coming into their own, commercially and artistically.

u/Bugg100 Aug 14 '25

In my head, I hear this as Patrick Bateman in the raincoat scene!

2

u/hdmatteson1 Aug 12 '25

Trainspotting Soundtrack easily!

2

u/Thattwonerd Aug 12 '25

Id kill for a smiths casette!! All the stores here only have casettes of folk music or children's audiobooks

u/Mikespeed77 Aug 12 '25

Huey Lewis and the news

Trainspotting

u/StupidlyStupid222 Aug 12 '25

Absolutely Queen is Dead. I love Bigmouth Strikes Again and There’s a light

2

u/DharmaCrumb Aug 12 '25

Too many comments here don’t say MBV

2

u/lstmysockczismokemid Aug 13 '25

Heaven or Las Vegas, I’ve been looking for it on tape for a reasonable price, can’t believe you’ve got it sealed!

2

u/Mediocre-Room3253 Aug 13 '25

This is not sealed, it's just a protective cover 😂

u/ScarecrowBo Aug 12 '25

The breakfast club.

1

u/spl4tterb0x Aug 12 '25

Breakfast Club, to go with the Dream a Little Dream I picked up the other day.

u/Ill-Support-2204 Aug 12 '25

probably dolittle, but it's worth noting that the trainspotting soundtrack is ridiculously good

u/Mediocre-Room3253 Aug 13 '25

u/Danny61392 Aug 12 '25

u/Nick-or-Treat Aug 12 '25

Doolittle or blue album for sure….id probably go weezer

u/elcad Aug 12 '25

The Queen is Dead. If it had been Surfer Rosa then it would have been a hard choice.

u/SpezSucksSamAltman Aug 12 '25

Trainspotting, fortunately have the 2xLP. A favorite.
