My All Time Favourite Music Cassettes | English Songs - Series Part 1 | 90s Music Era | Those Melodious Times |

avatar

There was a time when music was absolutely personalised…and few limited choices to choose from...individuals could pick and choose their own unique choices from the music market shelves.
It was such a simple yet a convenient process.
It was not so Technology driven then in the 70s, 80s and 90s!
Most of the current generation would even not know that there used to be music cassettes with preloaded songs.
These cassettes had finite number of songs on the either side of the cassette.
There used to be two sides of the cassette... Side A and Side B.
Each side Would have 5 to 6 songs depending upon the length of the song.
One could buy a Music Cassette from the music shop or a vendor, bring it home and play it on a music system or a cassette player or even a cassette recorder. As they were addressed as, then !
I really can't forget those wonderful times when Technology was not what it is now in the 21st century. Though technological evolution is much required to bring in a chance in almost every sphere of life ! Its actually become a necessity now in the times of tough competition. The way we listen to music has also changed dramatically ! Its all modern technology... everywhere !!!
The journey of cassettes started in the mid 60s and lasted throughout the 70s 80s 90s and 2000, eventually coming to a halt and people shifting from audiotapes/music cassettes to CDs.

Today, in this post I am going to share my all time favourite music cassettes that have been part of my collection since pretty long time and it's only very recently I discovered them lying hidden in one of my music boxes that I believe was forgotten for long. Now I am utterly glad to see my so unique collection of music cassettes and those wonderful songs that I thoroughly enjoyed over a long period of time.

What a wonderful Era it was… the era of 70s, 80s & 90s… beautiful melodious peppy soulful music.

So today, I am going to share some details of the series Part 1 and that is "HOT STUFF" the then called as "Today's Hottest Hits" English music songs.

So, when you read "HOT STUFF" today it may have totally different definition with the ever changing times at such a fast pace, people are immediately ready to jump to conclusions...those times were quite different though ! Really, I know ! Things were more ecstatic and aesthetic then !!!

Anyways, lets discuss the play list of some so very famous and popular songs that have been a part of the music cassette.

Here you can see the "Head" that used to play the tape with the tape recorder and player. Over a period of time the cassettes used to get worn out and deteriorate over a period of time after continuous playing them on and on and on.

I thoroughly enjoyed playing this music cassette...again and again and again ! It totally became such an epic.

I believe this playlist may have one of your favourite songs...for sure...either as the original composition and melody or a remix or in any other form...probably Instrumental....! But there must be some favourite from this list.

Kindly Share with me, if you have any of the favourites from the above playlist, i will be really glad to know !!! Lets revive old memories and relive those moments, though this post !!!

Thank you!
