Utopia on Open Reel Going back in time, playing Utopia recorded to a Maxell XLI 35-90B. Using my Akai GX-221 - a deck I bought for about $25 years ago and had its first service last year. And a cell phone video: Nando.

Concert For New York City 2001 This is a recording Scott @braxus recorded for me from his collection onto a BASF reel at 3.75 i.p.s.. Great performances by all the bands and artists. And a cell phone video: Disc one [edit] "America" – David Bowie "Heroes" – David Bowie "Livin' on a...

Elmo's Mix Tape I had to exercise the SAE C-102 deck - in the downstairs exercise room - by playing Elmo's mix tape. Been playing it since two days ago. And a cell phone video: Nando.

Just purchased an unmolested NAD 6155 for $75 CAD. Will have the technician go through it, as it has the original belt set in it. It should arrive in about a week. This was NAD's best deck in 1985-1988 - even though it's a 2-head deck. Nando.
