Note
When this cassette was donated to ITMA, it was unplayable - the tape had unravelled and jammed. Prior to digitisation, the tape was taken out of the original Kingsonic cassette shell, rewound by hand, and then placed in a TDK SAX60 shell. The original blank tape from the TDK shell was then placed in the Kingsonic shell.
Digitised directly to CDR from the cassette tape by Jackie Small, February 2005.
Imported from Reeldubs July 2013
