Steptoe 5th Aug 2020		Cassette Album Genesis - Live (1976)	While I can't find that specific cat# in any of my labels books, there are a few in the same area beginning with '71' or '72' and it seems to point to a late 1981 release
Steptoe 27th Jan 2016		Cassette Album Electric Light Orchestra - ELO's Greatest Hits (1979)	added alternative cassette shell images
Steptoe 11th Oct 2015		Cassette Album The North Pole - 4 Track Demo (1998)	Could be its been recorded on a 4 Track?
Steptoe 4th Aug 2015		Cassette Single Steve Harley And Cockney Rebel - Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me) (1995)	Added card sleeve and cassette images Tracks repeat both sides
Steptoe 27th Jul 2015		Cassette Album The Blue Aeroplanes - Swagger (1990)	[YouTube Video] Great album from this underrated band
Steptoe 9th Jul 2015		Cassette Album Various Artists - Wilde Rock Promotions (1979)	Ok, here goes, I've uploaded the 2 tracks to my Soundcloud account and made a playlist - first time i've ever done this so i hope it works - recorded it from my cassette headphone jack to laptop input via audacity (with more than a little help from my son), sounds like they were recorded underwater, but hey-ho, i got it to work :-D Playlist here (hopefully)
Steptoe 9th Jul 2015		Cassette Album Various Artists - Wilde Rock Promotions (1979)	Thanks MM but it's not the Don Williams one, It's much faster, much more guitar pickin'/bluegrassy (if you know what i mean)
Steptoe 9th Jul 2015		Cassette Album Various Artists - Wilde Rock Tape 27a Introduced By Kenny Everett (1975)	Just noticed that although it's Various Artists, The first act shows as being the name on the home page
Steptoe 9th Jul 2015		Cassette Album Various Artists - Wilde Rock Promotions (1979)	Anyone help with identifying a couple of the artists? Side 2 - Track 1 'Just a country boy' - quite a fast bluegrass/country version - It's bugging me because i can remember it when it was out, just can't find this version online to identify the artist Side 2 - Track 5 'Do you love me' - very dull/average version, absolutely nothing that makes it stand out from being a run-of-the-mill cover Ta very much, Col
Steptoe 9th Jul 2015		Cassette Album Various Artists - Wilde Rock Tape 27a Introduced By Kenny Everett (1975)	I'll start adding them over the next few weeks - got around 20-25 to list, only a few have the inner tracklist, so i have to go through the rest of them listening with a pen & paper and trying to work out the tracks (Shazam has been quite handy!)
Steptoe 29th Jun 2015		Cassette Album Associates - Sulk (1982)	Added additional images of sleeve and cassette
Steptoe 29th Jun 2015		Cassette Album M - Pop Musik : The Very Best Of M (1996)	The earliest tape I have seen (1996) with an internet web address on it (no longer in use - just tried it)
Steptoe 2nd Jun 2015		Cassette Single Andy Fairweather-Low - Andy Fairweather-Low (1984)	Release date taken from the EP issue on 45Cat
Steptoe 26th May 2015		Cassette Album Eddie Rabbitt - Radio Romance (1982)	Ironically for a Boot, it has a warning on the rear that 'copying of this tape is prohibited' :-D
Steptoe 22nd May 2015		Cassette Album Simon And Garfunkel - Sounds Of Silence (1981)	I'm guessing on this being a UK release due to the PPL licence info giving a London address on the inner.
Steptoe 2nd Oct 2014		Cassette Album Linda Ronstadt - Mad Love	Another case where the good folk at 747 decided they could do a better job than Asylum Records and played about with the running order and added six more tracks - you gotta love 'em ;-D
Steptoe 2nd Oct 2014		Cassette Album Linda Ronstadt - Different Drum	I rather like this version of the infamous '747' label with it's paper labels and aeroplane picture - which is strangely enough, a 747
Steptoe 2nd Oct 2014		Cassette Album Elvis Costello - My Aim Is True	Interesting how they have used a tracklist that seems to have come from an 8-Track cassette. Wouldn't have thought it would have been released on that format (a bit too late), but there is a copy of Armed Forces on 8-track on ebay, so you never know
