"Double-length tape dub of NT16 & NJ27, the entire out-of-print catalog (including rare 12" 45 EP "Stance"). (courtesy of H.P. Music)"

This is a tape Stevie put out at the very beginning of the Cassette Klub, NJ55, it's a C100 of Phonography, Delicate Tension and the Stance EP. I wasn't going to upload this at first, because it's all online, but I swear to god, Manufacturers on here sounds better in this indescribable way than any other transfer/upload I could find. At that point, I decided it was my duty to share this with the world. Also god dammit, tapes are just fun and it's fun to enjoy something you love in a new way.

Just, damn, man. These albums are both still so great. I'm a much bigger fan of Phonography than Delicate Tension (not that I dislike DelTen or anything, but Phonography is easily in my top albums of all time). It's crazy to see just how much he grew between these two albums; Phonography is eclectic, a bit amateurish, and more acoustic. By Delten, he's really discovered his NuWavvy sound and is writing some totally awesome songs (see Cool Daddio). I just love this tape so much, and my copy seems like some early one! It doesn't have the normal sticker labels, rather hand-written ones AND it came with A&B labels to the original 1976 press of Phonography! Cool shit, eh? The seller told me it came from the collection of an ex-music journalist.

Anyways, hope you guys enjoy. I hope that this gives even just one person in my audience who hadn't listened to either of these/Stevie himself that push to finally take the plunge. You won't regret it.
