Wanted: Canadian MCIS cassettes. - Page 2

D. · 06-17-2012, 01:36 AM

my first SP release is jumbled. i blame it on my cult upbringing since i had to hide any and all music i liked.

i think my first sp purchase was sd on cassette; then mcis on cassette; then i think pi on cd. and etc.

Back in 95, soon after I bought MCIS on CD I found a MCIS double cassette w/ case @ K-Mart that was sitting on top of the CDs rack, like a display. It wasn't wrapped in plastic nor did it have a security tag on it, so it made leaving the store very easy. Thank you K-Mart.

I stole so many CD's from K-Mart it's ridic. I am, to this day, convinced it was my masterwork that made them put CD censors in their CD's. before my onslaught they never had them; three months of me and they put them in.

I was like 15.

you are a horrible person D.

I stole TAFH boxset from sam goody.

slunken · 06-17-2012, 01:07 PM

my first sp was a used copy of siamese dream. i had a couple friends who were into cd trading pretty heavily did anybody else used to do this?

i wasn't allowed to do the columbia house deals so i bought most cd's from pawn shops & junk stores. there was a greate used cd store that was like an hour away though - that's where i bought my TAFH i think for only 35 or something

slunken · 06-17-2012, 01:09 PM

i remember being so stoked when zero would come on the local rock station - because it was based so far away i could only hear it in my dad's truck when we were traveling north and it would lose reception the closer we got back to town - prolly 10 miles or less

Slurpee · 06-17-2012, 04:20 PM

What was the retail price of TAFH when new? I forget, like $60?

I bought SD at Coconuts (lol) and MCIS at Target.

myosis · 08-01-2012, 11:30 AM

so do you still need that thing? sometimes i see it in used record stores.
i should get it for myself i guess, and compare the sound.

in high school i used to listen to a cassette i taped from the CD and it was a horrible transfer, but portable CD players were still a luxury then.

rottenugly · 08-01-2012, 03:13 PM

I'm sure the sound is almost exactly like the CD except with a little bit of hiss. I'd just like to buy it because my sisters destroyed the two j-cards like two years ago and threw them out the window (while it was raining!)

And I adored those cassettes, the last time I ever played them was with my Sony Walkman on the first day of school, sept 2009, I played 'Lily' and then I put Cassette Two back in the case. I spent days listening to those two cassettes, over and over again. Obsessively almost. At the time I had a curfew and whenever I'd go out I'd take my Walkman and I'd swing on Greenwood Park'swingset for about two or three hours whilst listening to a random cassette and whenever the cassette was over, I'd walk to my local store, buy a Pepsi, and walk back home...

On the day I bought those cassettes, I was with my father and at the time, whenever I wanted something he'd drive me over and pay for whatever I was buying, and I bought Silverchair's Frogstomp, Third Eye Blind's first album (a classic) and MCIS. And when I showed him what I was going to buy he said "Those are the same cassettes." because they had the same covers and I said "No." and I showed him the tapes and how they had different tracklistings from another. That was around the last day of grade six, june 2009. A day later, Michael Jackson died.
