True, it's not an original cassette, but the recording itself is the important part, isn't it? It's very interesting to hear Tolkien chant part of the Dies Irea.
Well, that's put me in my place. However, I'm not sure about the exact legality of the particular CD in question. Tolkien did record Beortnoth for the BBC in the fifties, so I'm not sure its the same recording I spoke about - though it may be. Thanks for the info anyway.
