"Some Music What I Like - Sometimes" - by Karl Hyde

[big screen satellite]

I've just received a music cassette that Karl Hyde made for a friend of his back in the mid 1980's.

Its a TDK AD 90 cassette filled with tracks that Karl liked, and wanted his friend to enjoy, accompanying it is a letter, handwritten by KH including doodles and a bit about the cassette, and how/why he made it (i don't have this yet - its coming under separate cover, with a KH hand made & hand drawn / doodled calendar).

The cassette tracklisting is handwritten by Karl - very neatly, and details the tracks and LP of origination where applicable....I haven't had the chance to listen to the quality yet, but this is what Mr Hyde was listening to around about 1985/6...all details are as on the tape....
