Reply to comment by HomerThompson15 in If I wanted to release a tape of an old 80s album by a relatively obscure band, what all would I need to do to make that happen? by bradsonemanband

Yeah, but trying to find band members of obscure 80s bands sounds like a full time job in itself. Haha. But that might be my best bet.

Well you’re going through the effort of releasing their tape so that can involve the effort of contacting them

If you can find a member of Cook Da Books on social media, I’ll applaud you.

There’s email, people have phones. You’re wanting to release their tape so get creative

I disagree. I’ve been a musician since the early 80’s and you can find me on every platform. Do you need help?

I did just find a member this morning of one of the bands I was considering doing this for. So that’s a start! I believe they self produced their album and he’s one of the ones that recorded it, so he may even have the masters, which would be awesome. I’ll message him and see what happens.

I doubt they still have their masters. In the 80’s most underground bands recorded on 4 track cassette Tascams. But, you might get lucky!!
