PaythePiper SUBS 1st Jan 2020		Cassette Album Various Artists - Stand By Me (1986)	Front Tape Cover, inlet info, both sides cassette tape transparent shell images added.
PaythePiper SUBS 9th Jun 2019		8-Track Various Artists - Superstars Of The 70's [Tape 2] (1973)	Interesting that they had an 8 Track of this 4 Disc Album. There were 49 tracks in the Album. Now I see that they had 2 volume tapes of this 8 track
PaythePiper SUBS 7th Jun 2019		Cassette Album The Beatles - Magical Mystery Tour (1967)	Here's this Cassette Tape Cover Image and both sides straight on tape shell program print variants
PaythePiper SUBS 28th May 2019		Reel-to-Reel Count Basie - Pop Goes The Basie (1965)	This tape has Side 2 as Side 1 on label. Have not put it on to see if they changed the sides. Sometimes Reels did not follow the LP exact structure if they thought the tape length would work best if sides where exchanged and sequence was altered.
PaythePiper SUBS 13th May 2019		Reel-to-Reel The Charlie Byrd Quartet - Let Go (1969)	Added this Reel To Reel. This recording has not been released in CD format yet, that I know.
PaythePiper SUBS 12th May 2019		Reel-to-Reel Johnny Rivers - Realization (1968)	Added this Reel- T Reel - Multifaceted artist Johnny Rivers did not want to be known as a Whiskey A Go Go artist forever so his ability to adapt to the times was reflected in this musical venture. Showed his resourceful musical ability fairly quick before the opportunity passed him by during the few years of psychedelic/ or in this case more Flower Power movement. In later years he would again show another one of his many abilities as a music producer as well.
PaythePiper SUBS 12th May 2019		Reel-to-Reel Roger Williams - Play Me (1972)	Added this Reel To Reel - listing on back cover of box is not in the order it plays on tape. Roger Williams tries to stay up to date with this release by playing 1972's biggest and very popular tunes of that time.
PaythePiper SUBS 23rd Mar 2019		Cassette Single Billy Joel - That's Not Her Style / And So It Goes (1990)	[YouTube Video]
PaythePiper SUBS 23rd Mar 2019		Cassette Single Toad The Wet Sprocket - Something's Always Wrong / Don't Go Away Corporal Brown (1994)	I was fascinated with Toad when they came out. I just thought the band's name was so cool and the songs so reminiscent of back in the day good pop rock. So I had my Toad phase for sure.
PaythePiper SUBS 23rd Mar 2019		Cassette Single Billy Joel - That's Not Her Style / And So It Goes (1990)	I guess they were betting on That's Not Her Style to be the hit but as far as I remember what they played on radio at the time was "And So It Goes", and was the reason why I bought this tape. Beautiful Billy Joel Style ballad.
PaythePiper SUBS 23rd Mar 2019		Cassette Album Steve Camp - Doing My Best (1990)	Steve Camp is one of the top ranking Gospel artists of his time. Great pianist. Doing My Best album is a very pleasant meaningful work of musical talent. Not your run of the mill Gospel music.
PaythePiper SUBS 20th Mar 2019		Reel-to-Reel Carly Simon - Anticipation (1971)	They were almost double the price of an Album, an album being 3.78 almost 4 dollars a Reel Reel was around 7.40 something in the 60's. Few had the money to indulge, but man, was their sound so much robust and powerful.
PaythePiper SUBS 26th Jan 2018		Reel-to-Reel Percy Faith And His Orchestra - Percy Faith And His Orchestra CLAIR (1973)	Included this RtR
PaythePiper SUBS 26th Jan 2018		Reel-to-Reel Billy Vaughn - Moon Over Naples (1965)	Included this RtR
