Anyone else got a copy of this tape? as mine seems to have died a very sad death before i managed to rip a copy

I must have stretched the tape and it now sounds like its speeded up and warped 😭 proper gutted!

Thanks for having a look m8 (y) think i will just rip it see if its all bad or just some of it :cautious:
Worth a try (y)
Ive had a few tapes like that, also had quite a few that stick and just stop so had to sit and nurse um through, also had quite a few that snapped from the start of the reel, which is a nightmare with the tape shell being heat sealed...

I have got one thats snapped right at start sitting ontop of my tape deck right now :( Boy George - Bangkok the only way i can save it is to crack it open and re shell it, its gonna be a right awkward pain in the ass! Good job i have got a box full of old tapes from back when they used screws to assemble them.

I will upload what i manage to rip off this alli whitehead - house masters, so far side B sounds good (y)
