Tape Deck


Quiet lurker/music lover who "accidentally" also became a part-time weird conversationalist. Music Recommendations. I prefer CDs and records. Ironic.

Tape Deck's Mixtape: Track 27 · 3:03pm 8 hours ago

We're back to a new band per day.


I really want to post a lesser-known song of theirs, but this one is so good that it traveled back in time and assassinated the Archduke of Austria.

Take Me Out by Franz Ferdinand from their 2004 self-titled debut album.

Tape Deck may still be gone, but I guess I did have time to make a blog post this morning.

I'll just direct you to last night's that was made for today.

ELO Week 9/9 (Carrot Top's CD Mix 2) · 3:58am Yesterday

I locked Tape Deck out of his house.

What?

I just wanted a turn again.

(And yes, this is the song for June 6th, but Tape Deck was already planning to do it tonight anyways, as he'd be busy tomorrow.

Now he's busy being attacked by wolves.

(Actually, I hope not. He's really a great guy. If I were one of his followers, I'd be sure to admire every word he types.)


Okay, ELO time!

ELO Week 6/9 (Mixtape 23) · 2:02pm Monday

I'm no shipper.

benjovi2004 knows this.

But I can't help but think of Sparity for some reason whenever I hear this song.

ELO Week 5/9 (Mixtape 22) · 1:00pm Sunday

This is a "symphony" of four songs, if you will, entitled Concerto for a Rainy Day from ELO's seventh album Out of the Blue (1977).

It's comprised of Standing in the Rain, Big Wheels, Summer and Lightning, and Mr. Blue Sky.

I won't blame you if you don't have time to listen to all 18 or so minutes of this.

But if you do...

It's spectacular.

Some guy even wrote a fic inspired by it:

(please set the order of the photos from a-z on the album, as except for the last few, that's the exact order I took them in.)
That's the link to the photo album, because I was having trouble uploading them to Fimfic.
