I remember trying to tape the top 20 charts on a Sunday , but the DJ always seemed to talk before the song had finished . Probably to spoil our fun . X

Yes - Sunday was the only day that mum let us have tea in our bedroom so we could tape it

The mixed tape creation and pencil days 
If the tape had a damaged part, guaranteed to be in middle of favourite song

I absolutely love 80s music and disco I need to play some more… I swear Alexa listens to what I’m saying I keep hearing songs about loss 
I remember rewinding the tapes I’ve still got loads of tapes singles and LPs they were the good old days.
My partner and I had different music tastes he loved heavy rock, Rolling Stones 60s free love stuff… haha

Haha. Alan was a right old rocker and I put it on now to feel closer to him. If I sit listening to Enter Sandman with my eyes shut I can almost feel him take my hand. It’s lovely.
