pudgym 21st Jan 2022		Cassette Album Kik Tracee - No Rules (1991)	My copy of this cassette came with the folded-in-four-parts marketing survey from BMG \| RCA.
pudgym 20th Jan 2022		Cassette Album Various Artists - Philadelphia Flyin' (1979)	Four of the tracks on this cassette got to Chicago POWER indoor soccer game day tapes. "The Love I Lost (Part 1)" got to the Memorial Cassette I gave to my ex-players. It was a good thing it was only Part 1. It went on Side "A". Side "A" had its final selection finish *five seconds* before the end of recording space.
pudgym 20th Jan 2022		Cassette Album Various Artists - The Super Mix Album	This one had to be bought. It had the right name for a certain indoor soccer team. The Whispers and Betty Wright got to game day tapes.
pudgym 20th Jan 2022		Cassette Album Hank Williams, Jr. - Best Of Hank Williams Jr. (1991)	On 'the other music cataloging W-WW site' is a note, "*This release has been blocked from sale in the marketplace*". What is going on here?
pudgym 14th Jan 2022		Cassette Album U2 - Rattle And Hum (1988)	I will keep searching; but I have heard on-air DJs state that, if you were a member of a record label's preference club (e.g.: RCA / BMG, Columbia Music Service), *this was the last contemporary release you could obtain on an 8-Track Cartridge Tape*.) (Which should therefore have its own entry here at 45Worlds.)
pudgym 14th Jan 2022		Cassette Album Ronnie Spector - Unfinished Business (1987)	I have to get out there on the back porch. Which is unheated. But, I am nearly certain I have this cassette, yes, despite its European heritage. Because I am fogging, and the compilation on which I put it on is {temporarily} lost (C'mon - Liars' Club and \| or the Map Room!), I put "Love On A Rooftop" on a Chicago POWER game day cassette tape. - Found it. -
pudgym 14th Jul 2020		Cassette Album Rachel Sweet - Fool Around (1992)	The cover version of "Stranger In The House" got to a Chicago POWER indoor soccer game day C-90 compilation cassette.
pudgym 13th Jul 2020		Cassette Album Various Artists - Dogfight (1991)	This was the release which was responsible for "We Shall Overcome" being the final song on a Chicago POWER indoor soccer game day compilation cassette.
pudgym 13th Jul 2020		Cassette Album Prince - Graffiti Bridge (1990)	Track 07 was the opening song on the C-90 compilation cassette I gave to my ex-indoor soccer players.
pudgym 12th Jul 2020		Cassette Album Roy Orbison - Mystery Girl (1989)	My cassette has timings on each side. Side 1 = 16:12 Side 2 = 19:45
pudgym 30th Jun 2020		Cassette Album The J. Geils Band - Best Of The J. Geils Band (1979)	On one of the Chicago POWER indoor soccer game day compilation cassettes, J. Geils' version of "I Do" was paired with the original version by the Marvelows.
pudgym 30th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Various Artists - Original Rock & Roll Volume 2 (1976)	This was another cassette I bought at Half Price Books in Shaker Heights, OH. It was 98¢.
pudgym 25th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Bourgeois Tagg - Yoyo (1987)	"I Don't Mind At All" entered Billboard Hot 100 chart 10 October 1987; reached #38 (17 weeks).
pudgym 25th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Various Artists - Michelob® Night Hits (1988)	Yes, it would have been weird if Michelob presented Steve Winwood performing "Back In The High Life Again".
pudgym 25th Jun 2020		Cassette Album The Tams - The Tams ‎Greatest Hits (Beach Party) Volume 1 (1981)	No composer credits on this cassette. The songs are the same as on the LP Release of this album, but in a different order.
pudgym 24th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Gerry And The Pacemakers - Ferry Across The Mercy (1992)	Golden Circle did a *spectacular job* of licensing original versions of songs, including many in true Stereo. So how could it mess up the spelling of "mersey" on this release?
pudgym 24th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Del Shannon - The Best Of Del Shannon (1987)	"Little Town Flirt" was incorporated into the memorial cassette I gave to my ex-indoor soccer players to symbolize playing "home" games in cities beyond Chicago (Worcester, MA.; New Haven, CT.).
pudgym 24th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Various Artists - Secret Love {Tape 1} (1987)	I bought this single cassette (somebody else hung on to the other two cassettes) at Half Price Books in Shaker Heights, OH. The tape was stuck inside the J-Card for *Tape #3*.
pudgym 24th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Various Artists - Rhino · Atlantic · Remasters (1992)	This was another cassette discovered in a cassette box at the Les Turner ALS Mammoth Music Mart in a converted parking lot at the Old Orchard shopping center in Skokie, IL. Most items were used. But one could find new and promotional music media available. This being the 1990s, vinyl was present. When bringing my dad [R.I.P.] there, he inspected and chose LP records. I preferred to shop cassettes, because I felt they would not have been subjected to as much damage as vinyl LPs. On the final day (Sunday) of the event, prices were slashed. One could fill up a box of cassettes, which fit forty tapes, for a fixed price. There was at least one year when I walked away from there with *three boxes* of cassettes.
pudgym 24th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Various Artists - Country Music Superstars Volume 4 (1989)	This was in a clear cassette box with no J-Card. I deduced the year of release from other Metacom cassette releases.
pudgym 22nd Jun 2020		Cassette Album The Cars - Candy-O (1979)	Track 11 here wound up on the Chicago POWER indoor soccer memorial cassette I gave to my ex-players.
pudgym 21st Jun 2020		Cassette Album Slave - Stellar Fungk: The Best Of Slave Featuring Steve Arrington (1994)	I bought this cassette at the Les Turner - ALS, Mammoth Music Mart (now defunct) in a parking lot at the Old Orchard Shopping Center. Two tracks (01, 06) got to Chicago POWER indoor soccer game compilation cassettes. Track 01 was placed upon the compilation cassette I gave to my ex-players.
pudgym 20th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Michael Jackson - The Original Soul Of Michael Jackson (1988)	This was a double-cassette release. Somebody decided to hang on to Cassette #1, because I did not get it. As well, there was nothing on the cassette exterior mentioning this was a double-cassette release.
pudgym 20th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Was (Not Was) - What Up, Dog? (1988)	"Wedding Vows In Vegas" was performed by the group with Frank Sinatra, Jr. on an episode of *Late Night With David Letterman*.
pudgym 19th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Various Artists - Glam Crazee! 20 Original Glam Rock Hits (1990)	This cassette landed numerous songs on my Chicago POWER indoor soccer game compilation tapes. Track 05 went on to be included on the memorial cassette I gave to my ex-players.
pudgym 19th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Various Artists - Star Collection Vol. 4 (1991)	Tracks without composer credits were shown as *Copyright Control*.
pudgym 17th Jun 2020		Cassette Album Various Artists - Jerry Blavat Remembers The Fabulous Fifties Volume Four (1986)	I have had this cassette since the 1990s. At least one of these tracks got to a Chicago POWER indoor soccer game compilation cassette. There were *three tracks I could not identify. The note now informs me (and perhaps you) why. It took landing on this World-Wide Web page to discern this specific cassette had been mislabeled* as Old Gold 5005.
