Well, In still have a few prog albums that I have yet to update on CD.
Untill I do, my cassette player will still be of some use, I guess.

Bob Mould - Workbook
I've still got loads of tapes in good condition, so I bought a decent tape deck rather than replace them all with CDs. Not so much prog in the tape collection, though - mostly indie/alternative/techno and suchlike. I used to pick up a lot of cheap tapes in clearout sales in Our Price, they used to have some amazing bargains. These days I like to check out charity shops for tapes, although you have to sift through all manner of dross to find the occasional gem. If you want to pick up 80s Genesis there always seem to be copies of Abacab etc for about 50p each - at that price they're almost worth it.

I think my tape player has long been idle.....the only tapes I have
that I want to keep are recordings of my Dad who was a church organist,
need to get them transferred onto another media I think...
