Press Play on Tape episode 23: Commodore 64: For the Love of a Machine, with Andreas Wallström

This month we're joined by c64.com's own Andreas Wallström to talk about his upcoming book Commodore 64: For the Love of a Machine!  Andreas chats to us about the book, and why he feels so strongly about giving back to the C64 community and ensuring that stories from the likes of Al Charpentier and Bob Yannes, or cracking legend Zoltan Kelemen a.k.a. Mr.Z/Triad are not lost the sands of time. 

 

We hope you enjoy the interview as much as we did recording it!
