The Cynics- Club Underground Madison Wi 3/10/90 xfer from 1st gen audio cassette Garage Rock Get Hip

It’s a laaaate collections post today. This was one of the more physically demanding days in a while. Thanks to Bill and Cory for all the help. What a day.
One good thing about it was that Jason Ross had all day to reply to my questions about this tape from his collection:
“my copy is first generation. It was taped by the co-owner of a used record store that I worked at an Appleton. His name was Stan Erickson. He would have taped that with Awai an deck, the same model I used for a Rawlins Band and some others. Not sure of the generation. Remember around that time it retailed for about $129 at Best buy. I’m sure if I saw a picture of it, I’d recognize the model.” I think I know the model – anonymous used it for his early tapes as well.

The 5 second space of nothing at the start of this one is intentional, so we could avoid the F Bomb within the first 8 seconds of the video. YT gets excited when Early F-Bombs drop

There was some high end distortion that I was able to EQ out of there. Sounds pretty decent now.
