THE
'HUMAN LEAGUE CASSETTE'
cassette,
Fast Product
|
|
This
'limited edition cassette' was available only via mail order
from Fast Product, and could barely be described as an official
release - it doesn't even have an official title or tracklisting!
|
| The
first such cassettes were issued as part of a promotional package,
purely for publicity purposes. By
early 1979, the cassette had evolved into a semi-official release,
available to the general public. To acquire a copy, fans had
to reply to a classified advertisement, which declared "Send
us a tape and we'll fill it!". (This is why there is no picture
of the sleeve above - how it looked depended entirely on the
kind of cassette sent to Fast Product.) |
|
The
tracklisting varied from cassette to cassette, but generally
it seems the tracks would include selections from the following
recordings:
|
Some of
the cassettes (probably later copies) may also have featured
Dance Like A Star ,
Interface ,
Dancevision ,
Disco Disaster
and possibly others, also recorded during the same period.
On some (possibly all) of the cassettes, Circus Of Death
also appeared, preceded by a short narrated section about
solar storms.
|
Six
recordings from the cassette would later appear on the In
Darkness bootleg album, along with other tracks from the
group's John Peel session.
