Femme Music Collection

These are part of a series of cassette compilations I put together for Ectophiles in 1992. I put some of them onto a videotape so they'd run 6 hours. To this day I regret not putting on any Kate Bush or Happy Rhodes, but these cassettes were for people who were already Kate and Happy fans so I didn't think it was necessary. I should have thought that non-Kate and Happy fans might hear these tapes and realize they needed to be here somewhere. sigh.

There's a bit of silence between the cassette sides and between the tapes before the music kicks in again.
