I used to make my own compilations, and it looks like a big chunk of side A on this tape was a compilation of all the live Erasure I’d collected to this point, haha. Then it goes into some Alphabet Club for a while, then some pretty hard Movement stuff (Ministry to Nitzer Ebb to KMFDM = perfect block, haha) then some more Alphabet Club.
The majority of this tape was probably recorded in ’95, but I had caught wind of a new OMD song being played on Live 105 in the summer of ’96. To get Live 105 at my house, I had to rig a wire from my boom box’s antennae out my window and up to my roof. Worth it! I was able to catch Walking On The Milky Way twice this way. I wouldn’t be able to get my hands on the Universal album until about 2000.
