  2. Been looking for this FOREVER! Still have my copy in a yellowing plastic case. For some reason, when I try and open the file, I get stuck and can only extract the first six songs. Will keep trying, but anyone else having a similar problem? Thanks

  5. This is awesome, thamk you!
    I have one nit: track 1 on your rip combines track a1 and a2 from the original cassette. The other track titles are incorrect as a result. Just thought you should know..

    1. I double check it and it doesn`t seems to me that the first 2 tracks are combined together...
