==1988-ish part 1==
This was recorded directly into the answering machine, with a roommate (Chuck Adler), in [[Providence]] circa 1988:
* {{htmedia|intermangle/Answering-Machine-TMBNaC.mp3|MP3}} '''The They Might Be Nick and Chuck Hotline'''

The answering machine was the kind that used a special cassette, that had fixed-length loop, for the outgoing message -- which is why there is a long wait after we're done talking before you get to the end.
==1988-ish part 2==
These were both made on a cassette recorder using mostly vinyl sources, at around the same time (back when my CD collection fit into a fairly small box):

* {{htmedia|intermangle/Answering-Machine-musical-msg-1.mp3|MP3}} '''Audio-Paste Message #1'''
* {{htmedia|intermangle/Answering-Machine-musical-msg-2.mp3|MP3}} '''Audio-Paste Message #2'''
: This was the one I finally used.

This proves that I used to have way too much free time. Also I've got way too many songs in my head. I have resisted the temptation to digitally "clean" either of these, so you're hearing them exactly as recorded.
==1991==
* {{htmedia|intermangle/Answering-Machine-bureaucratic.mp3|MP3}} '''Reactionary Response Message'''
: When we first moved to [[Athens]] and I placed message #2 on our home answering machine, certain of L's relatives found it disturbing for reasons that have never been entirely clear to me. In response I recorded the above response message and put it on the machine instead.
