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.

100 fun, silly, funky, spoken, intro, outro, countdown, moogshots, singing, etc etc jingles.

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:

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.

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!

That must be heaps of fun… and when you practice really well you can pick up a enthusiastic girl on roller skates too… or so it seems looking at those pictures.

Side A holds some famous synthesizer songs played on Yamaha gear, side B has the same tracks but only the rhythm and accompaniment sections so you can play along. You can find the normal tracks elsewere so I’ve only recorded side B for you.

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.
