15:40 – Welcome to Tape Land! On each episode, I’ll present the audio of a cassette tape from my collection. It’s a way to help motivate me to digitize more of my archives.

I have previously released Shatter Cider – but with the wrong date (1987), no track listing, and in some cases, a different name (Shatter Cider Suite (just the first 5 songs)). For this release, I made a brand new transfer from the original cassette, and present the title and track listing below, exactly as written on the tape label.

I recorded most of my “Little Frankie Nora” music in 1987, which is why I originally thought this tape was from that year. But apparently, I recorded music over the next few years, and collected it in “Shatter Cider” – making it the final Little Frankie Nora release.

In 1993, Mike and Frank briefly brought back Anything But Monday Magazine in a bizarre “packet” format, for one issue – with virtually no distribution. On this tape, they write the introductory “Words of Wizdumb” section, at Mike’s place while he’s cooking pasta.
