As cool as these are, there's a definite downside to them being on cassette. To avoid burnout by repetition, these sorts of things really benefit from the random access of a CD, or even needle-drops on vinyl. It's challenging to sit through several similar variations of a monster's call before being able to get to the next. Still, a very cool and unique collectible!
Check back next week for another item from my Godzilla collection!
