Look what got here just in time for #tapethemethursday ! I’ve been wanting a Walkman-type device for years, hoping one would manifest at a thrift store or garage sale or similar… this summer I finally got sick of waiting and bought one off eBay. Behold my new not-Walkman Personal Stereo! I was hoping for something with cool vintage metal-looking design, but that seems to add a lot of dollars to the price—I get it, we all love an aesthetic. I wound up picking this because it has EQ (which works pretty well!) and a vintage enough vibe. It sounds better than I was expecting. It’s got a constant “rrrrrr” noise anytime the motor is on, but it’s only noticeable between songs. As for the Who tape, pretty good! I’ll say about it what I say about most Who compilations: needs more early stuff. Little Can’t Explain, I’m a Boy, Kids Are Alright… and the inclusion of My Wife is incomprehensible. But it’ll work for #greatesthitsthursday by @for.the.record.marty #tapethursday @vinyl_sauce #thewho #walkman #cassette #cassettes #cassettetape #cassettetapes #cassetteculture #cassettecollection https://www.instagram.com/p/CR7o72ws-cO/?utm_medium=tumblr
