Jasper 6th May 2022		Cassette Album Marty Robbins - # 1 Hits (1984)	Hi Careys - just a tip I was given early on, with clear shell tapes if you turn them 90 degrees in the scanner you don't get the white scan line across the image.
Jasper 11th Apr 2021		Cassette Album John Lennon - Rock 'n' Roll (1981)	Not just the MFP release but what about the cover of the linked Aus. J&B release.
Jasper 24th Mar 2020		Cassette Album David Bowie - The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars (1972)	Just sold this one to Bowieontape.com - site could be of interest to Bowie fans.
Jasper 15th Nov 2019		Cassette Album Dionne Warwick - Soulful (1969)	Hi PhilMH - the cat # should be correct as it appears on the spine of the case and the labels. I have added further images now. N.B. the back has the "Festival Australia" reference.
Jasper 8th Nov 2019		Cassette Album Dionne Warwick - Soulful (1969)	Does anyone know when they stopped using this type of cassette case I seem to remember them from the late 60's.
Jasper 11th Oct 2019		Cassette Album Electric Light Orchestra - Balance Of Power (1986)	Looks more like the original jewel case did not have hub stoppers/prongs and someone has changed the case without realising and pierced the the wraparound inlay.
Jasper 19th Jul 2018		Cassette Album The Beatles - Rock 'N' Roll Music Volume 2 (1980)	Why is this linked with Vol. 1 - it is not the same release. Linked releases should have identical (or close to) content.
Jasper 19th Jul 2018		Cassette Album The Monkees - 25 Hits Of The Monkees	This one's certainly seen better days - note that track 12 is misspelled as Tapico Tundra instead of Tapioca Tundra on the inlay.
Jasper 18th Jul 2018		Cassette Album James Brown - Gravity (1986)	@whitewhale 1965 - the bar code field is not in the initial entry page but once you go to "Add missing info" you can add it. With this one I added it.
Jasper 12th Jul 2018		Cassette Album Roger Miller - Words And Music	I was going to enter this one a little while back but found the Made In Holland and 4935 300 05542 number on the tape a bit confusing. I tend to think that it was made for International release but not sure. I can't find any reference to the other albums listed on the flap of image 1703719. Maybe someone can enlighten me on this one PhilMH maybe?
Jasper 11th Jul 2018		Cassette Album Young Talent Team - Now & Then 15th Anniversary Album (1985)	I was deciding whether to enter this as Young Talent Team or Various Artists. I entered it as Young Talent Team but it automatically reverted to Various Artists once entered.
Jasper 9th Jul 2018		Cassette Album James Brown - Gravity (1986)	Hi whitewhale1965 there is no need to add the bar code in notes, once you have done the initial entry if you go to "Add missing info" there is a field for entering the bar code.
Jasper 4th Jul 2018		Cassette Album Various Artists - Reminiscing (1978)	I only have the shell for this one - no inlay.
Jasper 4th Jul 2018		Cassette Album Tammy Wynette - Tammy Wynette	I only have the shell for this one - no inlay.
Jasper 4th Jul 2018		Cassette Album John Farnham - Whispering Jack (1986)	Added another clear shell variant.
Jasper 4th Jul 2018		Cassette Album Madonna - The First Album (1983)	I only have the shell for this one - no inlay.
Jasper 18th Jun 2018		Cassette Album Acker Bilk And His Paramount Jazz Band - Extremely Live In Studio One (On A Cold April Night)	I was going to enter the label as PRT as per the front and spine but then the label on the tape is just Astor. Maybe PRT should be added as a secondary label.
Jasper 14th Jun 2018		Cassette Album Count Basie - At The Savoy Ballroom	Hi PhilMH - I saw that one - I'm sure that the content will be the same just don't know where the Argus label comes into it - it says Celebrity Series so presumably there are more.
Jasper 13th Jun 2018		Cassette Album Count Basie - At The Savoy Ballroom	A bit of an interesting one here. Can't find any reference to this Argus Music. I have listed this as U.S.A. because I bought it along with several U.S.A. cassettes. I'm not 100% sure but have noted that "Unauthorized" on the tape label is spelled the American way.
Jasper 6th Jun 2018		Cassette Album Della Reese - The Classic Della	Label is a bit of a toss up here - RCA, RCA Camden, RCA/Summit, Summit. Early 70s many budget RCA Camden titles were re-released/distributed by Summit Records.
Jasper 1st Apr 2018		Cassette Album George Thorogood And The Destroyers - George Thorogood And The Destroyers Live (1986)	This is not an Australian release - some sort of SEA bootleg maybe Indonesia.
Jasper 17th Feb 2018		Cassette Album Mrs. Mills - It's Party Time Again	Boy - Mrs. Mills seems to be a real party animal, wouldn't think it looking at her.
Jasper 7th Jan 2018		Cassette Album Elton John - The One (1992)	Hi neil86 just a little tip often mentioned re cassettes with clear housing/shell if you scan them 90 degrees (so vertical rather than horizontal) to the direction of scan you won't get the white scan lines on the image.
Jasper 1st Jan 2018		Cassette Album The Original London Cast - The Phantom Of The Opera (1987)	This is already entered here although yours does look generally better.
Jasper 31st Dec 2017		Cassette Album Mantovani And His Orchestra - Mantovani / Hollywood	I can't find anything other than the 1967 LP release - note no Dolby logo so could be from the 60's.
Jasper 31st Dec 2017		Cassette Album Ray Conniff And The Singers - In The Mood (1976)	Michael De Looper CBS releases has the LP as 1976 - presumably same for this cassette.
Jasper 12th Oct 2017		Cassette Album Dreamhouse - Sha-la-la (1998)	I have listed the title as Sha-la-la although it could just as easily be Sha La La - the Chinese text does not differentiate between the two.
Jasper 13th Sep 2017		Cassette Album Billy Holiday - Billie's Blues (1990)	I will ask for the label to be changed to Replay without any real conviction but just for consistency sake. I would have thought that Replay is more a series than a label but with the cat # starting with RP maybe it is.
Jasper 6th Sep 2017		Cassette Album Bob Seger And The Silver Bullet Band - Nine Tonight (1981)	Have now found Cassette 1 inlay and misplaced the tapes. One day they'll be re-united no doubt. I will put in a correction to shuffle the images into place.[Mod Edit: Images shuffled]
Jasper 7th Aug 2017		Cassette Album Deborah Harry And Blondie - The Complete Picture: The Very Best Of Deborah Harry And Blondie (1991)	@Quad5point1 - just a tip that was given to me a while back - when scanning clear shells turn the tape around 90 degrees when scanning and you won't get the white scan lines running through the image.
