any interest in an early nineties cassette collection?

Just so you know, I just found about 200 more cassettes, so the whole
collection may add up to around 500, covering a period from somewhere in
1991 to late 1993. The coverage within that period is not complete, but
I think there may be very nearly a complete, uninterrupted year. I'm
just sorting out the odd ones that didn't get marked up properly, so I
will be able to deliver any time soon. I hope I may be able to help with
some of the ripping, etc.

I'm so glad this project is here and able to make use of the recordings,
and I hope more of these collections turn up. When I stopped recording
the shows due to other work pressures, I wrote and apologised to John
for having to stop, and I told him I hoped someone else was doing the
same job as every show was such an absolute gem.
