    Just bought factory sealed No Code US release for $17 on eBay. I caved.

    Wow!! Didn't know they put different covers on cassette versions! This is great :)
    Yep. I have 8, only missing the rearviewmirror one to complete the set.

    Got this yesterday for .25 cents at the record store. AND.. if you enjoy the blues, especially acoustic... wow this is a great album. Sounds amazing on this tape. Just like Buddy and Junior are in the room with me. Again, AMAZING, best quarter I have ever spent!

    My No Code cassette was still in factory shrink with red/clear No Code sticker, like they did for the LP release and CD release. The packaging reeked of cigarette smoke though, fucking nasty. Sorry if you any of you smoke, but damn, I opened up the package and it was like stepping inside an ashtray. Out of instinct I grabbed a wet paper towel and then my Arrid deodorant and sprayed that fucker down. Now I need to drag out my cassette deck again!

    There's no Dolby double D to be found anywhere on the packaging.

    Any chance we can get pics of these No Code covers? I assume we've seen the photos before, but I for one haven't seen them as a cassette cover

    I had a copy of No Code on cassette that I recorded from the radio. If I remember correctly, there was a broadcast of the complete album at midnight the day it was released. I stayed up late and recorded that broadcast.

    My copy sounded like shit.

    I'm sure yours all sound better than mine did.

    I read an article not long ago saying that cassettes are coming back in trend, strange.
