I reckon the white noise sounds good anyway. It brings back memories when you hear the song fade away into it. Or something…

Throw all my tapes in the bin!! Are you mad?!

I spent years (and most of my student grant) on those cassettes, in the days when the options were cassette or LP. And cassettes were easier to listen to while making the 40 minutes walk to college. I never really got into the Sony LP Walkman!

You’ve seen my CD collection, I’m slowly building up my definitive collection of 80s/90s thrash metal on compact disc and while I do I’m happy to supplement it with my cassette collection.

Besides, have you heard most of my music? Most of it sounds like white noise, anyway! What do I care about Dolby B or C?!!

Right, I’m off to visit my Mum in Selkirk. In my car. The one with just a radio/cassette player. Now, where are my tapes…?

Yeah, Neat, really neat. Why not just throw all the tapes in the bin and buy some CDs where you can actually hear what’s on them instead???? Come on, call yourself a musician, Reverend? It says on the blurb that it has a signal to noise ratio of 55dB - that’s like listening to something really quietly playing in the next room while someone with really bad flatulence farts repeatedly in your face. That’s not good, not good at all, vicar.

WTFWJD? He’s ban tapes in heaven, that’s what. And remember, you don’t do heavy metal in dobly - you of all people should know that.
