I have a tape me and my girlfriend used to play in my car when we first met in 1992, it kind of became "our tape" It has various artisits on it and all the tracks fade in and out like its been recorded from an album, i need to try and find out which particular album or failing that, get all the tracks and artisits wriiten down so that i can download them, but i would much rather hope this album is out there somewhere so i can buy it, it's all different stuff, ragga,reggae,lovers etc so it's gotta be some kind of compilation album thing, i would be willing to pop it in a jiffy bag and mail it to someone if they are up for a challenge or just bored, would like it mailed back and would put another prepaid bag in with it. Cheers.

its pretty easy to record it on your computer from tape:

you just nee a "double mini-jack cable"

one side you plug in the "headphone out" on your tape player, the other side on the "mic" or "line in" entry of your computer. Then you record the sound with a recorder program (ex: mp3mymp3 is free). Thats it!

i have just recorded all the tracks through the little mic on my lap top, they sound pretty poor but how can i send the files to one of you, email or something? i just recorded about a min of each track, but to be honest i am thinking this isnt an album afterall, too many similar tracks with the same base tune one after another, gonna have to do it track by track i think, couldnt get 25 on a cd anyway,might just pick my favourite ones.

upload the soundfiles to rapidshare or something.
