Twenty years of Tapete Records... Our first release, if memory serves, was in 2002. Damn, time flies so fast when you're having fun. The world has changed a lot in the last 20 years but one detail has remained the same: We're still putting out great music. That's a bit reassuring, isn't it? So we thought in our Tapete Building at Stahltwiete 10 in Hamburg-Altona: Let's look back and start a series of good, old-fashioned, fantastic label compilations in the style of "Shadow Facory", "Tamla Motown Is Hot! Hot! Hot!" or "Wanna Buy A Bridge?"...something like that. And so here is Intact &amp; Smiling - The Weird &amp; Wonderful World Of Tapete Records Vol.1. It wasn't that easy to choose 28 out of about 5000 released songs, but what's easy?

Therefore a series. Intact &amp; Smiling Vol. 1 concentrates on the poppy side of Tapete Records, the basic tone is upbeat and uplifting. Can't hurt these days. The title comes from the John Howard &amp; The Night Mail song which says: "Intact and smiling, an independent soul, nobody's slave". What could be more fitting? We would like to thank all the great artists who have released music with us over the last two decades, especially the bands and artists who have so kindly and unbureaucratically made available their great songs for this compilation. And of course a big thank you to you who listen to, buy and stream (well, yes) Tapete Records albums and songs. So close your eyes, open your ears, open your hearts, open up a bottle and step into The Weird &amp; Wonderful World Of Tapete Records Vol. 1.
