The R.A.P. Cassette - November 1989

Side A begins with excerpts from Sandy Thomas's demo tape which features several format presentations, and we've added a few samples of Sandy's commercial voice-over work. Cut 2 is from Lori McTighe (WRAL-FM, Raleigh) who offers a great way to deal with unenthusiastic winners. Cuts 3-5 come from Hartford's powerhouses, WTIC-AM and WTIC-FM. On the B side, we repeat Dan Popp's "Dewey's Candies" spot. Several Cassettes may have gone out last month that cut off the first half of the spot, and the whole spot is worth hearing. The jingle was written and produced by Dan with vocals from Dan and a couple of guys on staff at WHLO. Cut 12 on the B side comes from WIZN. The staff created the "Unheard of Woodstock Weekend," which featured "never before heard stage announcements." Production Director Joel Bolton enjoyed 36 straight hours in the studio putting the weekend together. We've given you two of the many stage announcements to give you an idea of the insanity involved here. Finally, we wrap up The Cassette with the Test Drive of the SPX-1000.

By the way, a few tapes have come to us marked, "Copyright 1989" and so forth. This, of course, applies to all work on The Cassette.
