WHFS From Bill Ripped on 09-27-2013

OK...Here is another tape from contributer Bill. All I can tell you is it's from WHFS, probably early to mid 80's.
As with a lot of the other tapes Bill sent me, this TDKD90 tape doesn't even have a single word written on it. And Bill liked to tape the tunes...forget all the DJ chatter, commercials and what not. At the end of the tape is actually a sentence spoken by an unknown (to me) DJ letting us know we just heard a tune from World Party.
Maybe Bill will have a listen and recall when he taped it. It's full of good tunes, not to chopped up, so a pretty sweet listen. Thanks Bill!

Thomas Dolby, Don Dixon, Robert Cray, World Party and whole bunch of stuff that sounds familiar, but I can't identify.

WHFS 99.1 Meg Then Damian 05-07-1986

 Here is yet another fine WHFS Tape recorded at work on my Sony Boombox.
As before, sound quality is a bit less then steller compared to those tapes I made with my Pioneer CT-F1000 and Akai open reel deck. It isn't total crap though. 
Recorded, I believe, in the morning, starting with a few tunes from Meg, then the majority is Damien spinning some great tunes. The last five minutes or so sounds like I filled it with some Ronnie Hawkins. It's a pretty sweet tape!

This one almost didn't get shared. I originally ripped it a couple weeks ago, and when I listened to the rip it sounded like shit. So I deleted the file and tossed the tape in the trash pile. Then, later I was ripping another tape and discovered that one of the channels was dropping out due to some dirty RCA cable connections. Probably TMI, just glad I could get it out there for y'all to check out....Enjoy!

Robert Showacre, AKA Bob Here Passes On September 5, 2013

I didn't know that Bob Here had passed a couple of weeks ago. An anonymous reader sent me a message letting me know. All of us 'HFS fans I'm sure, are saddened by the news. It goes without saying, he was one of the best DJ's the station had to offer and also later on WRNR...Our thoughts are with his friends and family.

I taped this on a Sharp Boombox at work on Tuesday September 10th 1996. It was the day after Bill Monroe passed on.
WAMU's daily bluegrass show did a nice tribute with historic Bill Monroe recordings and great covers from some of the best players of the day. 90 minutes dedicated to the father of Bluegrass...

WHFS 99.1 Meg, Weasel 05-22-1986

OK, this is not the best sounding tape I've posted. But it isn't total crap either. I taped it at work on my Sony portable boom box. What it lacks in fidelity, it more then makes up for with music quality! 
This was a short lived experiment I had trying to tape great WHFS at work. Well it was interfering with my job so I stopped...just think, today, I would just fill an SD card, or HDD up and edit it later. Imagine how many hours we would have...oh well..at least I was blessed to be able hear WHFS all day, every day!

This one is loaded with Great, Great tunes to party down to. Kinda hard to believe it's middle of the work week music, but it is. Tenacious Tuesday, May 22 1986...
