As I mentioned, I'm jettisoning my archives-- and from touring lo these many years I noticed I have quite a collection of commercial casse-ettes (including many cassingles!) Today in the box, I found this excellent long-playing Keith Jarrett release "Birth" (1972) which features Charlie Haden (playing wah-wah bass), Paul Motian and Dewey Redman (that's Joshua Redman's dad for you youngsters--lol.) Think I got it at a yard sale in Oklahoma. It is still in print on CD.
...also, some history for us all:
The first commercial release of a cassette single appears to have been the Go-Go's' song "Vacation" b/w "Beatnik Beach" by I.R.S. Records, which trademarked the "Cassingle" name, in 1982, although the recording industry resisted the format.
I know I have several Cassingles™ of Super Bowl songs performed by various teams including the famous 85 Bears jam Super Bowl Shuffle, the Raiders' Silver and Black Attack, and at least one tune by the Redskins. I'll keep digging around, they're in there somewhere. |
