Enemy Radio

A while back, the nice fellows at Dinosaurs and Robots sent us a selection of old MRR Radio tapes from the ’80s. Here’s one from April 10, 1984, and another from from August 24, 1982.

And here is another one, in two parts, which I determined was probably from July of 1981. More will be posted here in the near future. Any help with the missing info on the playlists would be appreciated. Thanks to Mr. Jalopy and Mark Frauenfelder of Dinos and Robots for the tapes!
