It&#8217;s been an ongoing labor of love these last few years, and one of the few things keeping me sane during the pandemic. With that in mind, I wanted to make a quick post and share the remaining Fourwaycross LPs that I had in my collection, minus 1989&#8217;s <em>On the Other Hand <\/em>(which is already available on CD). You can read lots more about the band and check out their debut cassette <a href=\"http:\/\/www.systemsofromance.com\/blog\/2018\/12\/fourwaycross-fourwaycross-k7\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise, I&#8217;ve ripped their excellent second and third albums and cleaned them up considerably, also making sure to take care with the gaps between tracks to make sure they play as intended. I&#8217;m also including a fresh rip of the amazing <em>Shimmer<\/em> 12&#8221; from 1987, and 1993&#8217;s <em>Pendulum <\/em>10+7&#8221;, which was released after the band split the first time around, but musically predates the first cassette.
