NIK KERSHAW - The Riddle

Cat# 3245-4
Dolby Encoded
1984
Australian release
Standard clear cassette case is in good condition, meaning there are no cracks or pieces missing, although a scuff mark "here and there". Black clamshell with text is on a Black paper label each side.
The clamshell is the screw type (Yeah!), this means that ever you needed to get inside (lube job etc) there is every opportunity to open it up withhout destroying the clamshell, however be extra careful as you can easily end up with a room full of tape!
Before playing I repacked the tape (wound fully forward then backwards to the beginning so that the tape is re-tensioned) and carefully visually inspected the clamshell, rollers and head pressure pad - no issues with the shell or tape at all.
The audio is clean and the sound quality is very good, and there were no problems heard at all with "drop outs" and the program material has been played entirely on both Side A & Side B
TRACKS: Don Quixote, Know How, You Might, Wild Horses, Easy, The Riddle, City Of Angels, Roses, Wide Boy, Save The Whale
