You did such incredible things. The thrill of receiving a record like that... although I have a feeling that might have been an Our Price purchase rather than postal.

It's from @ride.band
Yes it's been a long quest, but I'm kind of resigned to never having it, and I haven't got a cassette player anyway. But no, I can't think of any other Ride I don't have, or any Slowdive, The Cure, New Order, Spacemen 3 etc that I don't have.

I often say, I genuinely can't imagine knowing there was music out there from one of my top, say, ten artists, and not owning it. It would drive me crazy. This tape is perhaps the one remaining holy grail.

...Basically, giving my youngest son my iPod Classic with 20K songs and loads of videos of him and his brother as kids has turned into a digital bequeathment with a level of emotional significance that that the unit's battery life is unable to support.

Thanks... yes, so would I, but my son has rediscovered my iPod Classic and now I'm tied in to some kind of 'digital legacy' thing with huge emotional significance, but a battery that lasts about 20 mins.

Don't, it drives me nuts thinking of the gigs I missed out on by a year or two.
