@keithsax,
'In the UK used to record the top 40 on Tandberg reel to reel from Yamaha CR800, Friday/Saturday night rock show with Tommy Vance, Annie Nightingale always playing Brothers in Arms as it was one of the first CDs, blues with Alexis Korner, big band special etc.- all gone (even the BBC big band itself)'
I think a lot of us did something similar, albeit with more modest equipment. Rather naively I would always edit out the DJ/presenter of the recording.
Only much later did I realise that's where the real nostalgia was to be found.
It's a bit like those unphotographed streets and buildings where you grew up having now disappeared forever.
Even places of work, where you spent so many many hours. I guess we get caught up in living for the moment, dealing with current needs and demands, but guess what?
Memories really, really, matter
