lunadicmusicworks1994:

Friend gave me the link to this broadcast, wondering if you guys are gonna play Strange Nursery's album "Verbal Mathematics"

There's some super gnarly track on there with 70s sounding spaceship sounds and a woman saying "Where's your spirit of adventure?"

I can link it if you want.

Hello there, lunadicmusicworks1994! Don't know that album. Yes, please do send a link. (Won't be able to get to it today, but I'd love to hear it.) Thanks!

This Red Asphalt was from San Anselmo, CA -- a city I know nothing about.

Marin County, pretty sure. At least one site claims they were from San Francisco.

That sounded really familiar. I don’t think I’ve heard Red Asphalt before. But that song maybe?

Tony Coulter:

↳ Dean @12:11
Well, the music on this tape was all recorded in San Anselmo, in 1982. So I'm guessing they were based there, for at least a while .. and then moved to SF.

I was interviewed for one of those books -- the Marc Masters one -- but I'm not sure he used what I had to say. I basically said I'm only interested in cassettes because so much great music was released only on cassette. I don't fetishize the medium at all. If all my cassettes could magically be converted into indexed CDs, I'd be perfectly happy. Tho I do like '80s cassette cover art.
