LADIES AND GENTLEMAN....

Found some old tapes today. Old school stuff.... old Fat Boys, Grandmaster Flash, LL Cool J, Run DMC, LA Dream Team, Dana Dane Sigh.... only less then a handful of tapes though. Tapes...can you believe it? I haven't touched a tape in over 10 years. Some teenagers alive today have probably never seen a tape in their lives!!! Dear God.

I used to be all into this old school hip hop stuff. At one time, I could claim I had *every* hip hop tape in the Tower Records shelf. About as many hip hop albums as an Asian kid in Hawaii could get hahah. This was back when their rap shelf was one little spot in the corner of the store. I pretty much bought anything I could get my hands on. Likely we were a couple years behind what was going on if we were in the center of it all in places like Detriot and stuff. But it was still a cool time to be witnessing it all.

Then, like an IDIOT, I sell them off a few years later when I worked at a music store. I was into other kinds of music at the time and I thought "hey I don't listen to these, I can make a few bucks and buy some new CDs". I think I'll forever regret that decision. Now I can't find those albums anymore.

Skinny Boys, UTFO, Fat Boys, Doug E Fresh, Slick Rick..... not in print. EEEEP. Damn I shouldn't have sold those.

I got to find a way to convert what little tapes I have into digital files......

... the DREAM DREAM DREAM DREAM TEAM IS IN THE HOUSE!!!
