Sorry I dont have a copy of that, I've had the same with one of my Moneypenny tapes from a double pack, so Im going to have to do the open heart surgery on it, those heat sealed tapes are a mare to crack open, was way better with the 4 screws.

they are a right pain in the ass to break into :( I do have some old blank tapes with the screws so i can re house it but i am not looking forward to it.
Last time it took me hours to get the 2 reels joined back together that tiny plastic peg is a fooking nightmare!

theres a few bangkok tapes with similar artwork covers to yours, sure they are all 1996 sets

I have 2 Boy George @ Bangkok 96 sets without covers, it might be one of these

if you can hear some of your tape you might be able to work out which one it is & i'll upload it
