Tape 21

This tape’s aiight. Very crackly through most of it, I’m sorry about that. But I’m serious guys WHAT was with my obsession with Interlude? I’ve got one other tape with it thus far but there are many more I’ve found. I wasn’t that particularly into Morrissey. I wasn’t that particularly into Siouxsie. Maybe as a sullen wannabe goth I thought I HAD to like it? Ugh. Who understands 13 year olds anyway. haha.

Tape 20

A delightful evening at The Alphabet Club πŸ™‚ Then suddenly it switches to 100.5 The Zone, a different station I didn’t usually listen to, to record Morrissey. I remember thinking The Zone was like… Diet KWOD. KWOD Lite. KWOD with Nutrisweet. Anyway, then we’re thrust back to KWOD for another delightful evening at The Alphabet Club πŸ™‚

Tape 19

3/4 of this tape is Alphabet Club, taped December 3 1995, and the rest is regular radio / Shawn and Jeff. Be careful of that Fasttrack CD towards the end, I swear it could induce a seizure. Also, there are some pretty loud instances of crackling sounds scattered around the second side, I’m sorry πŸ™

Tape 17

Way back on Tape 4 I mentioned the story behind Over Exposure and hoped it was on another tape… well, got some of it here at least, haha. I tried to date this tape using the Melrose Place promo but I failed, boo.

When I recorded this, it was the first time I ever heard PSB’s Where The Streets Have No Name, and I played this tape to death until I got Discography a few months into the 8th grade, so the best I can estimate is that it’s another Summer of ’94 tape πŸ™‚ (siiiiigh. what a great summer.)

Tape 15

Okay we’re bouncing back and forth through time again, haha. Looks like the tape was originally recorded in September ’95 on Live 105, then I recorded over parts of it with Movement in November ’95.

The last three songs were part of What’s The Connection, and the tape ran out before she took any answers! What do those songs have in common? The only connection I can think of at all is Paula Yates but what does she have to do with Frente/New Order? Let’s try and solve a 25 year old mystery! Haha

Tape 13

With Always being considered new (dating that part to Spring of ’94), and with “Thank You” being given away (dating that bit to the Spring of ’95)… this tape kinda goes back and forth through time. Some of the live club broadcast is from the Acme Dance Club, and some is from The Alphabet Club.

The Shawn & Jeff bit at the beginning has been seared into my mind for over 20 years and I had no idea I had recorded it. But even to this day, the thought of chocolate shakes with extra cheese cross my mind every time I go into a Del Taco.
