A few digitised shows.

[iaparkin]

Hello all,

I have been a lurker here for quite a while and may have something to
contribute. I have recently digitised a fair few cassette tapes of
John Peel shows from the late 80s to early 90s and am wondering if
there is any interest. Most are full shows - songs + JP talking. Much
of the charm of JP for me was the in-between song banter.

The tapes were a mix of Type I and Type II tapes, with most being Type
II. They were transferred via a Nakamichi Cassette 2 -> RCA -> mini
mac -> Audacity -> WAV format. The WAV files were then converted to
both FLAC and MP3 formats. The total size of the MP3 and FLAC files are:

9.1G    MP3_TAPES
30G     FLAC_TAPES

Below is the listing of the MP3 version of these files taken on a
Linux box. The important bits of the listing are the size (5th column)
and the filename (last column). The numbering of the tapes is as was
written on the tapes and may not be 100% accurate. Apologies for this
and not having more accurate information relating to dates, etc.
