Picked up a very mouldy, broken, dirty #cassette in #KualaLumpur: a collection of songs by Frances Yip, an absolute #cantopop legend.
Someone had been inside before, fixing a snapped-off leader tape by just connecting the magnetic tape directly to the reel. The card insert was bent and fox-eared and the jewel case cracked. Parts were covered in insect droppings.
Replaced the felt pad and rusty screws, spliced in a new leader, straightened the tape shell with heat, cleaned, steamed and pressed the card, replaced the case and slip mats, reglued the labels... the mould came off with a few plays and now it looks and sounds great. It has its battle scars but it's alive and kicking, ready for another 46 years.

I’m not entirely sure what started it, but a little while back I decided to start collecting all the Shamen albums on tape (Boss Drum was the last album I bought on tape before moving up to CDs), which soon ended up including the singles as well. I stopped after a while but I recently started again, picking up another couple. I’ve only got two more left to get now (I’m only going for the UK releases), if I can get the original Pro>gen single and the Hempton Manor album, that’ll be the lot I think!
