| JPGR&B SUBS My aim - to add all my collections on 45worlds. Member since May 2009 4552 Points Moderator | We need earlier dates. Say from 1980 to start with, or may be earlier? |

 | thatsunday Member since Jun 2009 14741 Points Moderator | The earliest release I could find on discogs dates from 1968. Philips issued a few cassette singles to promote the then new cassette format (ads for them can be found on the back sleeves of some german Fontana/Philips/Star-Club 7"). I have a Aretha Franklin cassette single, lying around somewhere, which was issued in the 60s/early 70s, so Philips wasn't the only company to try out the cassette single. Also in existence are DIY cassette singles from the late 70s/early 80s, and not forgetting Bow Wow Wow. |

 | carryonsidney a happy disposition is an omnious sign.... Member since Feb 2010 1708 Points Moderator | maybe there should be an extra category [or two] for types of cassette? I have just uploaded what could be regarded as a 4 track EP because its 2 different track on the A/B. Also its a band Demo tape (pre their record deal), as opposed to a promo single by a signed band? Unsigned Band tapes used to be fairly common maybe there should be a selection in the drop down box for Un Signed Band Demo ? |

We've changed the dates so that cassettes can be added from 1968 onwards. |

 | Carouselambra SUBS Classic Hard Rock Collector Member since Sep 2012 608 Points | My avatar on this site still shows the temporary Queen one I had put up earlier on CD Single so I wouldn't show blank until I found my Zeppelin one. I read on a different thread about them being the same in the "worlds" but I show Zeppelin on CD single and Queen here on Cassette single. |

 | Folker Member since Sep 2012 1531 Points | Why no "My Collection Settings" on the "Edit Your Profile" page? It's there on 45cat but not on 45worlds. Also, "Latest Updates" isn't updating (!) on the "Cassette Single World" Home page. |
| 9th Jan 2013, 9:30 PM | #15 REPORT | |
| Graham7 Member since Apr 2012 6406 Points Moderator | Hi Folker, re Your Collection Settings - it's there for me on my page. I think you may have to be IN one of the worlds to see it, rather than on your general homepage |
| 9th Jan 2013, 9:46 PM | #16 REPORT | |
| Graham7 Member since Apr 2012 6406 Points Moderator | And re the "Latest Updates" on the home page not updating, may I cautiously suggest that the Beatles and Queen images are being held there, as this World gets going... I added one tape yesterday (I've got 'undreds of em boxed up somewhere) and that didn't appear either. It does still appear on the homepage tho' cos I added a comment/query with it, about scanning card slipcase covers. Edited by Graham7 on 9th Jan 2013, 9:52 PM |

| Folker Member since Sep 2012 1531 Points | Regarding the "Your Collection Settings" option, I was referring to the list on the "Edit Your Profile" page which is accessed via the "Edit Your Profile" link which appears on "My Page" when already in Cassette Single World. This leads to a list of "Main Profile", "Private Messages", etc, exactly as for the equivalent page on 45cat, except that My Collection Settings is not present. In other words, even though I was definitely "in" the cassette world, I was not seeing the collection settings option in the same place as before. I now see that the option has been moved from its previous location to the world-specific My Page. (I have to say having all 4 "worlds" under the same site is just going to cause endless confusion of this sort, but it's clearly too late for that particular discussion.)

Unsigned Band tapes used to be fairly common maybe there should be a selection in the drop down box for Un Signed Band Demo ? I would consider tapes with properly manufactured printing and record companies etc. to be a different type of thing to the tapes that bands made (make) at home and were sold or given away at gigs etc. So YES, there should be some sort of DIY category? As regards EPs, I think it would be impossible to use that as a blanket term. Titles can still be added, I think. Edited by Graham7 on 9th Jan 2013, 10:19 PM |
