Starting point is 00:01:09 I'm Mike. I'm Joe. I'm Jamie. That has been established. We're going to play some cassette tapes. We're back with the way I got a huge pile here on the table. This is a very unorganized episode. Are we going to be?
Starting point is 00:01:23 Look at this like disheveled. There's some cellophane all about. Joe's opening a death metal tapes. I am. I know this has just been the scariest table. Too scary. Throw this away. Crunch it in the microphone a little bit. There we go.
Starting point is 00:01:38 Yes. That's a thing. Some of these freaks out there are going to get a little Put reverb on it. Give these freaks out there are going to get a little... Put reverb on it, Jamie. Oh, Jamie, give these freaks something to get some of the listeners. This is the only way they can get all off. I didn't like when you said, you don't talk
Starting point is 00:02:02 for a minute. Oh, my God. Don't worry. That's why I. You're starting to creep me out. Don't worry. That's why I did it. I get off on it. Well, I got some tapes here, but I don't want to be the one that, I don't want to seem too thirsty.
Starting point is 00:02:15 Are you sure? I'm a generous lover, so I want to let somebody else go first. All right, I'm going to go first then, Jamie. I'm going to take the reins. I've gone first. So I will, excuse me. Oh, so I will, excuse me. Order on the court.
Starting point is 00:02:28 I order in the court, your honor. I will allow Joe B. to go first. Thank you. But I'm feeling better. And only through my wise decisions as being leader of this podcast will I allow you to go first. Thank you, boss.
Starting point is 00:02:44 All right, I'm going to play this self-release tape by a local Philadelphia black metal band called Unholy Altar. Has this been vetted? Too scary. It's not been vetted, Jamie. I live on the edge. I feel like we need to...
Starting point is 00:02:59 Cancel me, Jamie. Cancel me. No, don't cancel Joe. Please, please, please. No one cancel Joe just yet. I feel like this is okay.'re like on the younger end of people So it's almost like Emulating
Starting point is 00:03:12 Then you know they're not from Norway they live in the woods You know what I mean And if they made any mistakes they got time They got their whole life to clean it up I was young your honor Your honor it was the 80s i didn't know i didn't know yet we were all doing it hand it over here jamie i do need you to before i touch it will you vet it will you vet it
Starting point is 00:03:35 me and larry saw them perform live okay so think about that well i'm thinking you're i'm thinking you uh are getting awfully close to that an unvetted black metal band yeah this is very scary for me it's on a max l it's on a 90 minute max l right yeah they're going old school school it's awesome wow you went to go see this philadelphia black metal band with the max l cassette tape who are going old school where did you see them? At the photo club with Questmaster. Oh, that weird-ass bar in Philly
Starting point is 00:04:09 you were talking about. That bar is so weird. Yeah. They didn't shut that down yet? It's a private club. Oh, so you can't... A private club? Yeah, you can't shut those down.
Starting point is 00:04:17 You can't shut those down. That's unregulated. That's wasteland. It was like in the wasteland. Yeah, you can't shut those down. Those are unregulated you could smoke in there there was a cigarette machine there was a cigarette like a new one it had vapes in it not like a they had an old school one and i saw that first with the knobs remember the knobs
Starting point is 00:04:34 like you pull the knob oh oh one of those yeah jamie jamie you don't know about cigarettes please jamie I can't believe I couldn't see. Please. Jamie. Jamie, stop. But it is a bar. Like, the building was a bar. Functional. Probably, to me, it looked like the 70s was its heyday. Yeah. And it seems like it's been abandoned since then.
Starting point is 00:04:59 And then somehow someone bought it and called it a private club. And now they do shows there. So something happened in the 70s. It closed down. And then a few months ago ago it opened up and unholy altar just started playing yeah yeah they said oh my god there's a cigarette machine here and unholy altar and they got the max l cassettes because they're going old school maybe they just don't know about national Audio Company and Duplication.com. Oh, they know, Jamie. They know about it. They know. They know. They're going old school.
Starting point is 00:05:29 Who's this on the cover? Is this person in the band? Yeah. I think that's the singer. Okay. Very scary. I'm excited to hear this. And they're from Philadelphia.
Starting point is 00:05:37 They're from Philadelphia. Wow. They were all corpse painted up and scary as fuck. Did they come with the corpse painted? Yeah, well, because when I got there, there were these people sitting at the bar with the corpse painted on. Can I have a ginger ale? Ginger ale!
Starting point is 00:05:54 Who are these bozos? I got it. You hope you play early. So what do you do after you play? They still had it on. Corpse paint all night, huh? Yep. All night.
Starting point is 00:06:08 By the end, though, they were kind of sweaty. It kind of ran a little bit. Oh, I hate it when my corpse paint runs. Yeah, that's why I use... I couldn't think of a good witty name. You want a minute? No, no. I'm on the spot.
Starting point is 00:06:24 I can't do it we can take a day or two and cut it back in later all right i'll workshop it a little bit you'll never be able to tell the difference jamie is a whiz on the audio all right you take off the t-shirt and you can see the line like a tan line but it's the he's like i go all the way down you just got to rewind the a side and we'll start with that. Oh, God. I listened to it a little bit. All right.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Not that much. So that's what I want to play first. Very cool. And this is a self-titled, self-released. Self-titled, self-released. Awesome. It's their demo. They don't have anything else out.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Oh, that's a little demonstration for us. A little bit of what we can do. Okay. Just to let you know, a little what we can do when we go old school on the Maxell Cassette. Do they fill up the whole 90 minutes on here? You know what? I'm not 100% on that. No way. There's four tracks.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Jamie already checked. I think it's probably just on one side. Oh yeah, there's only four tracks. It's four tracks. Okay. I don't I think it's probably just on one side. Oh, yeah. There's only four tracks. It's four tracks. Okay. All right. I don't even think it repeats on the B side. All right, Jamie, what do you got? Can you follow that up?
Starting point is 00:07:32 I think I can. This one's hot off the presses. Bloodsnake 2. Oh, I haven't seen Bloodsnake 1. I'm going to be totally lost. This one is from Apartment 421 From our friend Alex Homan From Delaware, then Baltimore, then Florida, now Vermont Oh, he's a Vermont boy now?
Starting point is 00:07:49 Really? Just arrived the other day It's got scotch tape covering the tabs A lot of it, too We got our 120 degree nubs The triple nub Oh, look at you, math head.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Look at the brains on Brad over here. Do you know... The degrees. Do you know in one episode we call them hubs and then another episode we call them nubs? No, we didn't call them nubs.
Starting point is 00:08:13 No, I'm a nub man. I've always been a nub man. You know that. We had to have been talking about something else if we called them hubs. No, I'm a nub. Should we explain what...
Starting point is 00:08:20 I don't think we've ever said when we say nubs what exactly we're talking about I've talked about it in length are you sure you said what you're talking about though I was at the tattoo convention I'm not that far away this circles back
Starting point is 00:08:34 your honor I brought some of my tapes I'll be the judge of that your honor and I was talking to someone and they'd never seen the double one that opens like that you know the double double one that opens like oh yeah that you know which i thought was yeah like the double naroko that opens both ways yeah and i was like well if you really want to get into something we could talk about nubs for a while i started showing all the differences
Starting point is 00:08:54 i was like see this is what we call a double but we still haven't said what the nubs are it's the like the hub like piece he just called him a hub. I know, I'm kidding. I don't know. It goes into the spool holes. Ooh. Yeah, it's the little things that stick up inside the Noroco case, inside the cassette case. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:16 There's two little pointy things. Hubs. And it mates with the spools. And it mates with the spools. Jamie, you dirty son of a bitch. Shut the fuck up, man. File done, Jamie. And sometimes they don the spools. And it mates with the spools. Jamie, you dirty son of a bitch. Jamie, shut the fuck up, man. Well done, Jamie. And sometimes they don't have them.
Starting point is 00:09:28 And they're often different. They're often different. It's snowflakes. It's like a snowflake, yeah. I'm going to start looking at these other tapes now. Well, hold on. Jamie talks about this tape. Sorry, here, here.
Starting point is 00:09:36 So this Blood Snake 2 tape is, it doesn't credit anybody on it, but on the band camp it says it's a project of Jordanordan romero from baltimore and then i went to the discogs page for jordan romero and that seems to be the person on the cover though i feel like they tried to make this tape look like kind of a fake movie soundtrack you get that get those vibes blood snake 2 yeah um some sort of soundtrack video game i mean i'll tell you one thing they didn't try that hard because it doesn't say like
Starting point is 00:10:07 anything about like soundtrack rated r the radio doesn't say rated r i'm like i'm a nc-17 kind of we know that big boy i like how um it's printed on like the shittiest piece of paper you can really yeah the worst yeah and i saw i want to point out again that the amount of scotch tape that's used to cover the the tabs the holes on the top yeah it's so much and i saw on instagram the other day alex homan who runs this label dubbing some tape i believe on the same duplicator that i sold him like 10 years ago and i'll tell you, it was bad when I sold it to him. I can't imagine. He totally refurbished it.
Starting point is 00:10:49 Oh, yeah. Actually, it did look like he bought all new belts, all new parts. It's true. I build pretty good computers. So what do you think he's trying to do? What do you mean creating a fake soundtrack? Well, it doesn't have any artist name on it. It's just called blood snake 2 and then even the picture of the guy on the front sort of almost
Starting point is 00:11:08 looks like a movie villain of some kind like i'm the blood snake but i might be totally off alex you know just sent it to me with no explanation um i played a little bit of it it's very like kind of lo-fi psychedelic um I'm the Blood Snake. And it's really good. Hey, everybody, I'm the Blood Snake. Blood Snake 2. All right. Speaking of 2, I'm going to play 2. The first one is because I got a bunch here.
Starting point is 00:11:36 I got more than all these guys. Yeah, give me some background music. Give me some nice, somber background music why i introduced this the first one is mergs bow and vinegar tom the tape's called field much mergs bow which mergs but i thought maybe you just were having an aneurysm well i am i really wanted to look at that in addition to that uh Who's Merzbow? I don't know. It's difficult to find any information about either of these artists online anywhere. And maybe I live online, so I'm not finding information anywhere else.
Starting point is 00:12:17 So this is not Merzbow. No. That's what, see, I don't want to rule that out. Yeah. Who's Scarab Tapes? Scarab Tapes is the label that released this tape. Oh, it's not even Scarab. It's S-G.
Starting point is 00:12:31 Oh, is it? Let me fix this. S-G-A-R-D. Scarab. Scarab. I can't say it. S-G-A-R-D. Who could that be? And that's the name of the label? That's the name of the label. Field Much, which I assume has a lot to do with field recordings.
Starting point is 00:12:49 Oh, okay. Maybe there's some more information. It's a very vague tape. It's Field Mulch. Field Mulch? Yeah. I thought it said Field Much. No.
Starting point is 00:13:00 I thought that was so clever. Field Much. It's Field Mulch. And Vinegar Tom Field Mulch. Oh, clever. Field mulch. It's field mulch? Mersbaugh and Vinegar Tom field mulch. Oh, what is field mulch? Is that different than just standard mulch? Yeah, it's for the field.
Starting point is 00:13:12 No, you don't plant. It's not for flowers. So these aren't field mulch? Oh, it's for crops. It's crop mulch. Okay. Like sorghum. Okay.
Starting point is 00:13:25 So yeah, Jamie, you asked, or you said, so this is is not Merzbow. It doesn't seem to be Megsbo. This is Megsbo. Now, look at your keyboard. Do you have a standard QWERTY keyboard on your machine? I do. Look how close the R and the G are to each other. It could be possible
Starting point is 00:13:41 that it's a typo and this is Merzbow. You think it's possible? I don't want to rule that out but on Discogs they don't have it listed under aliases for Merzbow well you've been had do you want to put a note on there? can you put a community note that just says a work order to check this out
Starting point is 00:13:57 just put like citation needed on episode hold on here I'll put it on right now on episode 197 of Tabs Out here. I'll put it on right now. On episode one ninety seven of Tabs Out, it was noted that Merv's bow is quite possibly Merv's bow, but this was a typo on the
Starting point is 00:14:13 cassette jay card. Also, it's not called Field Mulch. It's called Field Munch. I really thought it was called Field Munch. Yeah, I know. Learn to read. What's the drawing of? It's some birds.
Starting point is 00:14:28 A couple birds. Oh, that's what made me also think it's probably a field recording because field recordings are littered with those goddamn things. At first, I thought maybe this tree that they're on is over the field, but there's a couple wavy lines, but there's three fish, so that might be some sort of river i think that the the trees are the tree is over and the birds are hanging out on top okay two birds uh a red bird and like a brownish bird it's a british project from cardiff cardiff wales right wales yeah now whales are involved yeah all kinds of creatures god bless the queen god save the queen
Starting point is 00:15:02 or do we bless her i got bad news for you joe oh what we lost her oh son of a bitch we lost her for the queen real quick why pick my next tape play me something somber for the queen okay thank you nich Nicholas Langley. Does anybody know Nicholas Langley? I don't know. Is that a third kind? Am I right?
Starting point is 00:15:31 You're right. Jamie, please. Jamie, please. He's on fire over here. Oh, Jimmy. Pull him up. Easy. Reshapes.
Starting point is 00:15:45 The complete HZ Reworks. What does that mean? I don't know, because I've got to read it for you, because you might have said something wrong. That's like Hertz Donut? No, The Complete Hertz Reworks. Hertz Donuts? You want a Hertz Donut?
Starting point is 00:15:59 Then I punch your ass? No. Yeah, this guy runs Third Kind Records, and this is like a um he calls them reshapes i think they're just remixes i don't know what he's trying to what he's trying to do here he's trying to fool some people a career spanning collection of nicholas langley's reinterpretations of music by various friends and third kind label mates huh he calls it a career huh interesting i don't recognize anybody sometimes everything's wrong you don't recognize a single name what a Fisty Kendall. That's it.
Starting point is 00:16:48 Yeah, no fisty. Wrong Signals, maybe I've heard of Wrong Signals. We played Wrong Signals before. What about Feeder of Hope? Crush, Smash, Reflex Conditions, Son of Celluloid. Well, I think the problem is... Lyndon Pomeroy. Sky King.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Well, I think the problem is you don't know any of these people. I don't think anyone does. And I think Nicholas Langley's like, God, give me some of your music. I'll reshape it. Nobody knows any of your shit. Give it to me. Give it to me.
Starting point is 00:17:21 I'll turn it into... Jamie, he's a tastemaker. So wait, he's remixing other people or other people are remixing him? I think what we're supposed to be saying is... What are we supposed to be saying? He is reshaping... He's reshaping other people's stuff.
Starting point is 00:17:33 Other people's music. Get your own stuff. Get your... What do you mean? Nick should make his own music? Make your own music. Oh my God, make your own music. How old are you?
Starting point is 00:17:42 What are you, a baby? Right now you're causing a disturbance. So this came out on third kind uh good job march buy your own music uh i'll probably play the first track off that because that's what's rewound too all right it's the uh crush something what is it no i'm serious i know you are that's the... Crush something? What is it? No, I'm serious. I know you are. That's the meanest part. You're being so mean to this one. Am I? It's crush something. Normally, I'm mean to it, and it's cute because I'm a stinker. I'm not being mean.
Starting point is 00:18:13 But you are not supposed to be mean. I'm not trying to be mean. It's not my intention. Crush trash. Radios. I don't answer questions. This is really, really scary and difficult. This one's from the year 2000. All right, so we'll start off with that scary black metal tape.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Let's start with the scary stuff. All right, let's do that. Have you ever acknowledged the fact that you're a sinner? Have you ever come to God confessing your guilt? This, you know, is really repentance, and God commanded all men everywhere to repent and to come to the knowledge of the truth. When I take my place before God as a self-confessed sinner, when I cease trying to hide or to cover my guilt, when I acknowledge that I'm just what God says I am, lost and undone. I don't think I can hold back. I'm sorry. The battle Is Invaluable Rise From the ashes
Starting point is 00:20:32 And On your own The island of the Swords FALL! Thank you. To leave a way to show Faith in what we've lost Rise, the blood has shed Stand, a body of the world The eye of justice for all I am just a fool I am a slave

Starting point is 00:47:40 Oh, hell yeah, brother. That's so cool. This is on Children of the Abyss, which is a label run by Eli Wood, who is a tattooer in Vermont. Did you say tattooer? Tattooer? A tattooer?
Starting point is 00:47:55 Did you get this through the tattoo circuit? I got this through the circuit. That's so interesting to me that sometimes you get your tapes through the tape community, but Joe B., you're a bit of a tattoo artist. You get some of your tapes through the tattoo community.
Starting point is 00:48:11 Which is a whole different kind of community, but then you bring these tapes from the tattoo community into the... No. It's not meta. It's symbiotic. It's a synergy. It's synergy.'s symbiotic it's a synergy it's synergy so this is i believe he
Starting point is 00:48:27 told me this is a band that he was in i don't think he's currently in this band it looks like these recordings were from 2010 and 2013 why are these tattoo artists tattooing the j cards now is this is this vaporwave or what kind of genre? I believe this is the death metal. Oh, death metal. Yeah. Death metal. You're going all over. You just had the drop-down menu.
Starting point is 00:48:49 It's metal, and then you clicked on it. Yeah. And you brought all of them. Is it death metal or death metal? Death metal. Oh, death metal. Death metal. That's funny.
Starting point is 00:48:59 I'm doing it right now. I'd put on a laughing case for that Oh you're too quick Are you trying to text the group Death Mattel? Yes but I don't know how to spell Mattel Is it two L's? Well this is So we draw this warrior woman

Starting point is 00:49:32 sort of like uh like leather pouch or something and tattoo it and put the tape in that i think you can do all kinds of stuff these days whatever but i'm not i don't know i don't use leather uh my friend no i know you don't but like what could you do i have a leather jacket in the car you want me to put it on it's black i just don't wear it in front of you guys but like i i see what i'm saying is there appears like could you tattoo people uh-huh use your actual tattoo skills i don't answer questions well let me get one out the Well, he did the drawing. I know, and the drawing's beautiful.
Starting point is 00:50:07 It's awesome. I love the drawing. The drawing's great. It's a gorgeous one. He's a great drawer. But what I'm saying is you have these other skills, and could you use that? Combine them?
Starting point is 00:50:13 You can't, actually. You can't do it? It turns out that you can't. That's where you hit a brick wall. Yep. You can't do it. I would just like to see that. People have tried.
Starting point is 00:50:20 People have tried. Maybe even one special edition of this tape, the vaporizer, Days of High Adventure. But he tattoos this picture, a simplified version of it, on something else. What could you tattoo it on? I don't know. Let me see this.
Starting point is 00:50:34 Could you tattoo it on a wallet? A wallet. And put the tape in the wallet? You put the tape in the wallet. And then you put the chain on it. The chain. Yeah, and then you just put it in your pocket and you're walking around with your JNCOs on,
Starting point is 00:50:45 and somebody's like, do a kickflip. Do a kickflip, and then your vaporizer tape falls out of your pocket. So I don't know. It doesn't list who's in vaporizer on this, so I'm not sure if this is all Eli or if this is a band. But he plays drums on the Grave Dust tape. Oh, wow. A little foreshadowing. Yeah. Oh, wow. A little foreshadowing.

It does look a bit EDM. Too scary! EDM, yeah. That's what the kids, Gen Z is calling it EDM. Maybe I. There might be an I. Oh, IDM. I don't think that's IDM, though. You don't. Yeah, it's not geometric
Starting point is 01:26:15 enough. This is the most unverified episode of Tabs Out I think we've ever had. You were just like taking the shrink wrap off as we go. This is on Linear Fade Records. People took two labels to put this out. People Places Records.
Starting point is 01:26:32 And I know nothing about this. Yeah, I think it's gonna sound like that. It's kind of futuristic, but like maybe maybe the city's also kind of dystopian in the picture. There's the neon-type light, and then a computer-type...
Starting point is 01:26:48 What font is that, Jamie? I hope it's not papyrus. It's not papyrus. It's not papyrus. What do you know about the... It's like a retro kind of computer font. I don't know. It almost looks like NES.
Starting point is 01:26:57 NES-type font. Yeah. What do you know about the hand drums known as tabla? Tabla. It's like an Indian instrument, instrument right takes a lot of training temporal waves is a new project from someone who brings the tabla to the rich electronic sound world oh really i think i think i don't know what i think i think this is gonna be really good and you just pick this out of the mail bag? Just picked it. You can do that?
Starting point is 01:27:25 Yep. Wow. So this might be pretty good. I think this is going to be really good. It's like a clear pinkish magenta tape. Okay, hand it over here. Is there a label name on it? I said the both labels. Yeah, but I was getting this other information about the hand drums.
Starting point is 01:27:42 Yes, yes, yes. Jesus Christ. Linear Fade Records and People Pl hand drums. Yes, yes, yes. Jesus Christ. Linear fade records and people places records. Okay. Made in Canada. God bless the queen. What happens if they don't put Made in Canada on there? I don't know, but all these tapes lately are made in Canada.
Starting point is 01:27:55 They're stealing our jobs. I know, they are. What happens if you make a tape somewhere? Is this it? No, it's just tabla music. Oh, it's just tabla. What happens if you make a tape and not in Canada and you put Made in Canada on it? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:28:08 They come for your ass? They come for you. The temporal waves happen. The Mounties come for your ass. It's a beautiful instrument. Yeah, it's good. So knowing what you know now about the band. I'd do it again.
Starting point is 01:28:18 I would do it again. I just don't care. You've always been a man who just hasn't given a shit. Two shits. I don't know. I say made in the USA. Well, God bless you. It's full of musical instruments.
Starting point is 01:28:32 Do you think there's like a loophole? Could you get a tape made in Canada? Put made in Canada. I thought we axed this bit. And then underneath put made in the USA. Yes, yes. You can do that. You can do that.
Starting point is 01:28:43 Yes. All right. You can do whatever you want. All right. You can do whatever you want. All right, just checking. So I'm going to follow up this Temporal Waves tape, which, Joby, I don't know if you ever said what label it was on. Oh, my God. Two labels.
Starting point is 01:28:55 With this compilation tape from Styrofoam Records called The Mixtape with No Shitty Song. I'll blow that saxophone. The Mixtape with No Shitty Songs.

Starting point is 01:32:43 All right, as for me... Well, Joe B., you didn't mention there's a little star on the window. Oh, sorry. I didn't mention the star. It's also... I don't think it's a hard window. It's a soft window. There's just a lot of tape in there. Let me see. It's a very soft window. It's a soft window? There's just a lot of tape in there. Oh, you're totally right. I'm totally
Starting point is 01:33:00 right, yeah. It's a crinkle window. It's a crinkle window. Son of a bitch. Yeah, maybe we shouldn't play it. Alright, I'm very excited to play this next tape for you guys. He's Canadian. This is the one? Well, I've kind of been doing a little series lately for tapes from my grandfather. Jamie,
Starting point is 01:33:15 please. We did Don Joe. Don Joe. A little bit of organ music. And then last week we did the Tony DeNicola band. DeNicola band, which was a little bit When You're Smiling. DeNicola. DeNicola. And this week we got Tony Batoni. Tony Batoni.
Starting point is 01:33:30 Tony Batoni. Tony Batoni. I kind of alluded to this last time. The A side's comedy and the B side is music. Pop music. Pop. It's called Two Sides. He's got two sides. He looks like, you know, it's very 90s looking. He's got two sides. He looks like, you know, it's very 90s looking. He's got some action in the back.
Starting point is 01:33:48 He looks like a mixture between John Stamos and Joe Pesci. Yeah. And, I mean, the comedy is kind of what you expect. It kind of sounds like Las Vegas. Like, he's trying to do a little Rodney Dangerfield. He does quick one line. He's talking about his kid. I don't get no respect.
Starting point is 01:34:01 His kid just has his VCRs and his Nintendos. Oh, these kids. That's not a joke. That's true. Yeah. And I'm not sure. Maybe some of the jokes might be a little dated, but we won't edit them because really we don't.
Starting point is 01:34:14 What are you getting into here? Well, here at Tabs Out, the tapes we play do not express our individual views. It's just we're playing them almost as a historical. It's a historical thing. Yeah, so we're going to preserve history here. What is on this tape? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:34:28 Yeah, well, Mike might edit it out. I might edit it out. Because he's a snowflake. I always edit out one minute from every episode. Live at the Princess Casino, Freeport, Bahamas. Yes. This is a guy you would see when on vacation, and he'd be playing at your resort.
Starting point is 01:34:42 He just thought, man, I nailed that set. In the Bahamas, yeah. The Bahamas set was sick. That set was so sick. He did AC, he did Vegas, but the Bahamas set was something special about it. Something in the water. I need people, I need to record it and put this out. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:58 Yeah, he needs to make a cassette tape of it. Yeah. So he's showing up at the resort and he's like i got tapes for sale in the back this one's cool jamie because it's this is like a real yeah the other ones aren't real and he's from new jersey too which is kind of this is like on a label kind of oh is it well blank tape studios so maybe at the time uh-huh you kind of paid them to yeah is this like a thing where he would go to like a mall and he would get like 20 made? It looks more professional than that.
Starting point is 01:35:27 It looks like something you buy at a goodie. At the time, in the 80s and 90s, you go to a mall in New Jersey and you go into a booth. You go to the Paramus Mall. You go to the Paramus Mall and you go into some kind of booth. It'd be like, make a tape today. Well, no. Well, maybe.
Starting point is 01:35:43 $20. This is Black Tape Studios, Pompano Beach, Florida, it'd be like make a tape today well no well maybe 20 studios uh pompano beach florida manufactured and printed disc makers new jersey us oh pensauken pensauken before they were making cds maybe or maybe right oh okay this is taking me back this is like a legit it's taking a lot of our listeners i wonder did your grandfather, did your grandfather know Tony Batoni? And this is one that I didn't grab. You remember I was saying I got one from his desk? This is one my parents one day just dropped off a bunch of tapes and CDs.
Starting point is 01:36:13 Okay. But I'm almost positive this is from their house, because I don't think this is something my parents would own. Right. Is your grandfather still with us? No, he died in 2017. Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. I want to thank him for everything he did in the war. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:27 Okay. How many more tapes do you have from him? I think I'm going to cap it with this one. I have a lot more tapes, but it's like Benny Goodman's greatest hits. Count Basie live at the... God, look at his haircut. Yeah, he's got some action in the back. It was the 90s
Starting point is 01:36:45 yeah christ man this oh i see what you mean but when you say it's a real tape joe like it's the classic shell with the actual printing on the shell yeah this is like a real tape not just those other ones were kind of very oh and this is 95 they had a handmade quality that old yeah yeah but they were still traveling in 95 they were still going so i'm guessing they got this from Atlantic City or something. They used to like to go there.
Starting point is 01:37:07 So yeah, he was probably killing that night. They went to his merch table. They bought a tape. And now we got it. We're playing it on
Starting point is 01:37:14 the show. I wonder if they ever listen to it. You know, that's a good question. Yeah. Or if this was just kind of a souvenir
Starting point is 01:37:23 that got bought. I'm guessing it got very little play time. Very little play. Tony Batoni is an entertainer. He does some comedy and he does music. Song and dance. And just like me, I identify as an entertainer. I do comedy and I do music.
Starting point is 01:37:38 Jamie, please. So it's like we're carrying the torch in many ways. Tell us a joke, Jamie. Tell us a joke.
