Last month I cleared out a container full of old cassette tapes.  I threw some away, others I piled into a box and brought up to my studio.  Slowly I&#8217;ve been listening to them and deciding if they are worth keeping  (a lot are damaged in some way- they sound like a warped record).  It has been a strange trip back to other times in my life, as far back as the early 70&#8217;s.  Yesterday, I tried out a tape with no label- I thought it might just be a blank tape.

They went on to sing several more songs- talk about being sent back to another time!
