Notes: This tape is in poor condition. It’s an acetate tape and is warped and brittle. It was so warped that during my initial playback, it would not fit on to the 7″ destination reel. Also, during playback the tape would wobble which caused some crosstalk between channels.
I was able to get a successful transfer by transferring this tape to a 10.5″ reel which gave it enough room to perform a full transfer, and reduced the wobble. There is still some crosstalk between channels, but it’s a decent transfer considering the condition of the tape.
Additionally, this reel contains an excerpt of 1963 Feldman String Quartet performance. The full performance is available on REEL-021.
