Harsh Reality Music
|
Harsh Reality Music was an essential homemade music label of the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s, operated by Chris Phinney of Memphis, Tennessee. Harsh Reality has not yet received its due recognition for being one of the most important cassette labels of the 1980s Cassette Culture. HalTapes will make efforts to document Harsh Reality's contributions. Below is the modest beginning of these efforts, the Harsh Reality Music catalog, containing listings for more than 300 tapes and discs!
