I passed a copy of the whole tape, there are more songs all in perfect quality. Carly is delighted to have it and thanked me for sending it. I will let her decide what she would like to say about it. Having been chased by many news outlets I gave a brief interview for AP which is as much as I am prepared to say. In summary, I found it on an old tape and having seen the story about Carly looking for it I sent it to Rolling Stone who had agreed to forward it to her.

Yes, the full story is a long story but in short ChrisL found the tape in my archives while we were researching Hot Stuff. We spent the best part of two years going through my stuff every Saturday picking out what to put in the book. The tape was mysteriously named CS/MJ and ChrisL had seen a piece where Carly had appealed to find the tape. Well it was there in my archive ;-)
I contacted her to say I had it and would she like it but at first no one appeared to believe me. I just sent the whole thing (not a sample) and Carly was delighted. I think the only thing her and her team couldn’t then believe was that I didn’t want anything. I might be a keen collector but I do have standards, it’s her recording, I wasn’t going to stick it in an auction and let her bid.
I actually listen to it a lot… it’s crystal clear with chatting and the sound of pouring and drinking between tracks, it’s just like being in the room.
