MEMORY TAPES - 22ND OCTOBER 2010

Our Memory Tapes this week comes from Alistair Stewart (not that one) who writes...
"My good friend Paul who I was sharing a house with at the time in Liverpool put the tape together for my 21st birthday in October 1994. We were both indie kids and I remember going to see Elastica, The Fall and the wedding present with Paul and having many great nights out in Liverpool.
"The tape reflects Paul's love of the wider spectrum of indie/guitar music. There's a few bands on the tape that never made it out of the nineties (or even 94!), a couple of my favourites on the tape are Revolver and The Davinchies . I'm on a long term mission to find original copies of these tracks, so far neither has turned up. Luckily I've got an old car with a tape deck so I can still belt them out in all their "type 1" cassette glory.
"'Bongo' on the cover is my nickname in case you're wondering." And here is the cover:
