Brand New Cadilac

The last track on the tape of the 13th is the first track from the 12th
Play on ...


This copy is from the taper and is a big upgrade, much clearer and very enjoyable, though it does have some very slight distortion in patches. A touch less clear on the front side.

The back side less so where the sound improves somewhat throughout.

The old tape was slightly below average, muffled sound.Sleepwalk is edited in at the start. The sound is distant as well. This cuts off toward the end of Straight to Hell omiting I Fought the Law.

Note some tracks on mine are bundled and only 18 show up but they are all there as noted.

Did you go? What do you remember?
