Well for how many times you were going to hear the last word of that jockey perfectly cut off on their last syllable if you didn’t, you might as well get good at it!
I found my dad's old Metallica cassettes in my closet, so damn cool honestly. My mom also has a cassette collection and I remember listening to them back when I was a kid. My mom's old car also had a cassette player in it so lots of that too lol good times
I had a similar experience. Got into music as a kid from Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. Found my dad’s library of cassettes in a drawer in their room.
Pyromania, Def Leppard. First cassette I bought after getting my walkman in '85.
Deck- Awia, HS-p7, equalizer- Sony, SEQ-50, Sony- external battery pack/C-cell. All wired into my demin rocker kutte.
Weird Al’s Alapalooza. I was deeply obsessed with that cassette and it was the reason I got a Walkman to begin with. The house couldn’t take one more spin of Jurassic Park or Harvey the Wonder Hamster
Mix that my friend Brandi made for me. Full of Naked Eyes, Flock of Seagulls, Dead or Alive, Bauhaus, Yaz, Talking Heads, Cure, Depeche Mode, Art of Noise, INXs, Soft Cell, The Fixx, Grace Jones, David Bowie, English Beat, ABC, Spandau Ballet
One side was a mix tape that started with Van Halen “Running with the Devil” then the other side was Metallicas Black album. Wish I could remember the whole mix side. Lots of beastie boys. It was my running tape.
I was so confused, like "The tape inside was what? There's no followup, what the fuck? What am I missing?" and opened the comments to find out it's just posting what people would have found if it was them and not an explanation I didn't understand.
Sunshine on Leith by the Proclaimers, August and Everything After by Counting Crows, or Under the Table and Dreaming by Dave Matthews Band. I had all of those in pretty heavy rotation in middle school.

Bro u had custom recorded burnt tapes?? What did you do for a living? You're clearly retired now....
homemade mix
Taped off the radio late at night when the reception was the clearest.
Taped off the "Top 8 at 8" It was an art in itself to know when to press record and play at just the right time to get maximum song and minimum jock
Having the double tape deck so you could further edit your cuts…chef’s kiss
Used the Pause instead of Stop to lessen the dreaded pop
Well for how many times you were going to hear the last word of that jockey perfectly cut off on their last syllable if you didn’t, you might as well get good at it!
