You've finally woken up! Nice of you. ThreeTunesTuesday is just suitable for such posts. (I skipped this week...) I had a lot of cassettes, too; I still have a double cassette player I used to make mixes with. I don't have any more cassettes. A long time ago, I gave one substantial black garbage bag full of my tapes to a friend who has a mountain hut and still has them there :) I burned it all on CDs and later on DVDs, and I donated it all years ago :), and I have my own NAS where it's all on, so I can listen to it all over the internet or locally if it doesn't work. And I have a phone full of music for the car :)
Hurt is a great song, but it's a cover of Nine Inch Nails. I think it's on Cash's last album, just before he died :(

Still Wonder why posting became so challenging for me. Takes a lot of energy it seems 🤷♀️
Your friend on the mountain hut is wise to keep them 🙂 think we reflected more in how to arrange the songs. Wich one would suit the best as next. I spent hours with recording
Yes, mixing and recording were time-consuming. Nowadays, I just put four or five bands in the folder and play them randomly. 🎶
Ya, but you dont put selected 20 songs in a special order. Listening to my first old mixed tape I see a big difference now.
And the quality of the old records also much better. More calming somehow. Okay, probably you have a top device and high quality mp3s, thats different I guess.
My last experience with a cassette was when my older son (two years old at the time), in my Peugeot 307Break (which I still have), jammed a wrong-facing cassette into the player...and wholly ruined my car radio, so I took it out... and I haven't had any more cassettes since 😀
Haha 😅 reminds me of cassettes trying to get the wrapped up tape out of the player 😅 but somehow this became rarer with newer generations of players and cassettes I think.
So your son has an early cassette trauma?
Twenty-one years have passed now, but he still remembers how I screamed then... the car was almost new, two years old, with a built-in radio and an Alpine cassette player (they made excellent audio equipment for ordinary people then, but now I think they only make it for the high-end), and I had no sound in the car... for the crazy 😜
Haha what a family drama. Car without music is a No Go. Can remember Alpine it was well known, but too expensive for me at that time
