04/24/2005 18h10 Paris XVIII - near place de la Chapelle
Traversing Paris in a friend's car, from Belleville to Montparnasse, we got stuck in a traffic jam near the place de la Chapelle. Looking from one of the car's side window, I spotted a Philips cassette (see picture) in the street, and jumped out to grab it. It was broken, and part of the tape hung out; but it was easy to repair and pretty much complete. It turned out to be mostly empty though ... apart from an amazing ten minutes on the first side. These are (surprisingly good quality) recordings of three telephone conversations ... A young French(?) guy ('Raphael') calls someone ('Tom') in the United States, apparently a record company (Warner Bros?) executive. In the first conversation (a part of which is missing), they arrange to meet in New York, where Raphael wants to hand Tom a cassette tape with seven of his compositions. In the second call, Raphaël asks what's happening with his tape. But also, he congratulates Tom with Bill Clinton's election (or re-election), which of course makes it possible to date the recording as being from either around 1993 or 1997 ... I think 1993 will be the best guess ... Tom says he'll call back in about a week. In the third (and last) recorded telephone conversation a secretary tells Raphael that, unfortunately: no, for now the company is not interested in doing something with his music ...
