Cassette Classics No. 13 – Some Beauty
Some beautiful songs here: I couldn’t get enough of Merchant of Love when it came out; my wife and I put it on the tape we gave to guests as a wedding favor the following year. And, if you’re not familiar with Dana Cooper, I highly recommend you buy the Stone By Stone album. Another song of note: Sweet Knees and Backbones by The Cat Mary, who I was surprised to find has continued making records since this one was recorded.
