    Oh it comes on tape? It doesn't count then. In this video it's mentioned and sounded like it came on the vinyl

    I bet with my turntable I could load direct from the vinyl. Maybe I'll give that a go sometime and make a video. I could swear I have that Thompson Twins vinyl somewhere in my collection. I'll have to dig it out.

    I'm almost certain my brother loaded the Thompson Twins game straight from vinyl at least once back in the day...

    I wondered about Radiohead. There's a theory that that album Ok Computer is called that as a nod to the Spectrum. After you run a BASIC program the computer displays 0 OK: 20:1. Or something.

    On the reissue of the album recently, it included a tape of Spectrum programming.

    It's not a speccy program it's just one of their unreleased B Sides.
