Cassette – Discoveries
Charity shop worker and musician Peter Smith discusses surprising audio tapes which arrive in the collection. Resonance FM listens in to an anonymous journalist’s 1976 interview tape featuring a known journalist, Paul Foot, some music never intended for release and stumbles on a hoax meditation tape on the way. All crammed onto two sides of a C30 cassette.
