03/10/14: Abandoned Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan’s MTV Unplugged CD was released on 2nd May 1995. On 3rd October 2014, I spied this ancient poster revealed in the building works at Tottenham Court Road tube station – a glimpse of almost 20 years ago.

26/09/14: Abandoned cassette

Found at Brook Farm Open Space, N20. This abandoned cassette – labelled “TDK CDing 2 90” – was originally displayed on the Abandoned CDs page, owing to its loose connection with that other abandoned music format (and, in this, case presumably intended for recording CDs onto tape). But this page now seems a more sensible resting place.
