For that matter, I have some really fond memories of times as a broke
teenager when I borrowed a cassette tape from someone meaning to tape
something off of Side A, and just for the hell of it, taping side B and
loving that even more than side A, even though I had no idea who Side B
was. That happened to me a few times. I also still have tapes that I
made off of various college and public radio stations that have these
beautiful snippets of atmospheric electronic music on them that I still
don't have any idea who performed. Those were the days. The closest
thing I've experienced to that lately is getting completely high and
downloading stuff from soulseek and then finding the next day that the mp3
is called 04.mp3 with no ID3 tag. Those can be fun.
