Since the Foo Fighters are so popular for firing Josh Freese, I figured I would post something from them for On This Date in History /s. My favorite Josh Freese recording is that Cali Giraffes album that he did with Kim Warnick of the Fastbacks. Great stuff.
This tape is another one of those “Why isn’t this online somewhere yet” deals. What the heck?
This tape is another mystery. I really should have kept better notes when getting these 25+ years ago. First of all, this is a very late cassette trade, so the person I got it from must have had damned good stuff. I became a DAT snob around this time and quit trading on cassette with only a few exceptions. Pissed a lot of my old trading friends off. Sorry.
Second, this is a master cassette. Someone taped this off of the BBC for me and mailed me the tape from England. The tape is even an odd type of TDK I have never seen before. My tape list says “thanks Michael” for the tape, but the only 2 Michaels that I remember trading with at the time were Michael Siou and Michael Pemberton… and they both were in the US and were on DAT at that point.
If you are the Michael who taped this and sent it to me, please remind me.
