He-Man and the Masters of the Universe – Stardust (1985)

MOTU were my absolute favorite toys and cartoon as a kid. I remember getting this tape for my birthday and I played it a gazillion times. And when I recorded it last week, after 25 years, I still knew every line.

This story tape is the Dutch translation of the German story tape “Sternenstaub”. It was attached to the He-Man & Skeletor Two Pack in the Netherlands and Belgium in 1985.

Juliana Regina – 1948 – 1980 (1980)

Today is Queen’s Day, a dutch national holiday to celebrate our Queen’s birthday. One of the best things of Queen’s Day is the traditional freemarkets all over the country where everyone can sell what they want in the streets… basically one big second hand market. The perfect day for crate digging in search of new Stereofound material.

To celebrate, here’s a double record with recordings about and of our former Queen: Juliana, who sat on the throne from 1948 to 1980. There’s people speaking and singing about Juliana, speeches by Juliana herself and information, historical recordings and highlights  from her queenship.

Here’s some excerpts:


Here’s disk one and two (101 mb)



Hoe Bedien Ik De 27 MC (1980)

How Do I Use The 27 MC (1980)

This is (yet another) one of my favorites. An instruction record on how to use a CB radio (27 MC) (or more commonly known as a ‘bakkie’ in dutch) with information on etiquettes, how to speak and use your voice and how to choose a ‘skip name’ (nick name).

Especially the recorded example conversations are fun. No doubt that this record was very helpful for CB radio users back then but now it all just sounds very cheesy.

Here’s some clips:

Aerobic Dancing with Doris D (1983)

Doris D was a singer/dancer who scored some some disco hits in the dutch charts in the early eighties. She was originally from the UK but moved to the Netherlands as you (well, the Dutch visitors here at least) will hear from her accent.

The instruction poster is still included by the way which makes this record extra awesome!

Tracklist: (all tracks by Doris D & The Pins)
Midnight / Silver Spaceman / Higher and Higher / Jamaica / Cooldown

Stereo Wegwijzer (1974)

Stereo Way Point (1974)

A wonderful stereo test record where Mies Bouwman and Willem Duys explain very clearly how to install your record player, accompanied by a variety of classical, jazzy and cheesy 70′s music.

Here’s some random clips:


Enjoy! (36 mb)



Voor Moeder En Kind (±1972)

For Mother And Child (±1972)

Another gem! A single to promote the anti-abortion foundation (I posted a record from the same foundation here)

Side A holds a fake newsflash with a newsreader speaking about how unborn childs are being torn apart with pliers and burnt alive by salt solvents during abortion.
Side B is a story told by an annoying child about how an embryo grows and eventually gets killed by the mother.

What a treat!

Hoera! Dennis… no… Stereofound Is Jarig (1984)

Hurray! It’s Dennis Stereofounds Birthday (1984)

Stereofound turned 1 today! Here’s proof.

To celebrate I dug up this personalized birthday record. It’s a cardboard record once sold as birthday cards. The frontside is laminated with plastic for the grooves. It holds a short introduction and a horrible birthday song for Dennis. (obviously, these were sold with all common names)

Not sure if these were common around the world but I’m sure here in the Netherlands many will recognize it (I remember my sister once got one for her birthday back in the eighties too.)


Here’s the track in higher quality (2mb)




Electric Boogie 2 (1983)

This is a classic!

An electric boogie instruction rapped over a near 30 minute old-school hiphop mix by Alex And The City Crew. The LP comes with a big poster with the step-by-step instructions. Rad!

Here’s the intro:


Get down here (25mb)

I’m sure many of you dutch collectors will have this one too but if not, go look for it, there’s still quite a few around so it can’t be hard to find.

This great stereo test double album by Jan de Kruijff is, besides the sleeve, exactly the same as ‘Het Meest Complete Stereo-Album’ which I posted  here about a year ago.

Here’s the preview:


If you haven’t downloaded the other one, here’s the file for this record (30mb)
