I've got an awesome cassette of Annihilator's Alice In Hell.

That's it basically.

I used to have a few cassettes that I listened to back when CDs were just coming around for mass market. Nothing special though. I remember a friend giving me a tape that he recorded a few of his songs on, but I can't seem to find it. Recording straight to a tape recorder has been something I've wanted to do.

Am I the only one under 30 (even under 25) that used to use cassettes (let alone vinyl).. I still have a really good tape recorder in the loft, like a hi-fi one from just before they stopped doing cassettes... although I only used a walkman, my car has a CD player though but if someone stole it and put a tape deck in it... i'd feel retro and good.
