Description
I hate to sell this, but I've got to let it go! I've had this cassette in my collection for about 10 years and its been kept safely stored away since then.
For sale here is AN ORIGINAL (Very Rare!) "Pocketwatch" cassette recorded in 1990 & 1991 in Virginia by Dave and Barrett Jones. Recorded on an 8-track cassette console, this tape features Dave on all the instruments just like the Foo Fighters debut album. The song "Color Pictures Of A Marigold" was later re-recorded and released as the B-Side to Nirvana's "Heart Shaped Box" single. Also, "Winnebago" was later re-recorded and used as a B-Side on early Foo Fighters singles, and played live in their early days. This is truly a piece of rock history.
Condition is EXCELLENT!! Audio quality is better than most of the CD bootleg versions of this that I've heard. A tiny amount of "tape hiss" exists at the very beginning on playback as you'd expect, but the recording sounds great. All the packaging is in in amazing condition too. Check out the photos. This is a great example of a really rare release and if it doesn't get any bids I'm going to hang on to it.
Check out wikipedia.com for more info on this release. I believe it has a detailed history write-up page.
Shipping is $3.00 for first class shipping with full insurance within the USA. Canada/Mexico pay $8.00 for Air Mail with insurance. All other countries pay $12.00 for Air Mail with insurance. I will package this tape very securely for safe shipping.
