Notes

1 cassette; off-white (creamy?) plastic cassette shell, printed with green ink. EMI ”circular” logo. BIEM logo.

1 inlay (not medium-thick card like the UK Gold-Inlay series, but matt medium-thick paper), printed on one side, which reproduces kind-of the original album art (albeit with a ”circular” mid-70s EMI logo), plus song, publisher and composer info. Also some Greek blurb.

Comments and Reviews


jakal68 11th May 2022		BiggieTembo wrote (copied from notes): "A Greek-issue cassette, bought in mid-December 1980 The tape presents the songs in their CORRECT order, as per the LP, unlike the British EMI Gold-Inlay series, which were available at the time (thank God I didn’t grow up thinking the LP started with “I Need You”, as did the British version…). Unfortunately, I had the fantastic idea to trim the back flap so it would match the cassette box’s back flap. You can also see my grubby little 8-year-old fingerprints on the cover. But this was made to be played – and I wore it out. Date of manufacture? Sometime in the late seventies perhaps – it has the “circular” EMI logo, introduced around 1973. It must be said that the manufacture, sound transfer and tape materials of this cassette was (and still is) far superior than the UK EMI Gold-Inlay issues from c.77-82. What with the track listing being in the correct order, it begs the question why the Greeks could produce a far better-manufactured product, while the British tapes had thumping drop-outs between the tracks, bad quality tape, not to mention the evil Double Play tapes... It’s here that I must admit that this artefact is probably the most important “thing” in my life. The experience of seeing the film, and buying this cassette - changed my life - and started me on my musical journey. Me and my Brother would listen non-stop to the tape, on our mono Alba radio-cassette-players, playing along with tennis-racket guitars, pretending we were John and Paul…"
