Delightfull discovery

[Grant]

Was scratching through some old boxes and found some old mix tapes from 2 clubs in durban from the 80s (ronnyz and zodiac).

2 are chrome and 2 are metal so the quality should be ok.
However, i dont have a tape deck - so its off to find one tomorrow.

Trying to figure which cloud storage to use. Uploaded to mediafire then had problems trying to download again.
File sizes are 85, 122 and 94MB.
Any ideas. (ease of access & download is the priority).

Last year I sold all my 80's tapes for the mad max movie and there were a few hundred tapes. I now have a crate of over a hundred cassettes that look, according to some that are written on, are all classical and some religious tapes and I don't know about the rest but have had people that are interested in buying them for various reasons.

grantza, if you don't get a tapedeck send me a pm as I am selling my mini hi fi with the double tapedeck etc.

Got one. Thanks for the offer tho.
My dad was a sound freak. Spent vast amounts on sound equipment.
He died quite some time back but there were boxes and boxes of equipment. I have been using some of the stuff. When i realised i suddenly needed a tape deck i went box diving and unearthed a rather fancy nakamichi tape deck. Thing is i have no tapes any more
Some of it i will get round to selling at some point.
The one pair of speakers are massive - too big for my place, but the most incredible sound from them.
I digress tho.

I had a friend's son earn some pocket money by sorting out the music library on an ext drive.
A "few" errors were made with labels etc, but the uploads have been done.
I cant find the original tapes now - but these are definitely from Ronnyz.

They can be downloaded from here:
http://www.mediafire.com/folder/r19gg3d6b9lad/music_for_jason

Look for Ronnyz 1984 & Ronnyz 1985.
I have other music from the 2 clubs, but an going to have to spend time identifying what is what in the ex drive library.
