Were any of you taping concerts circa 1972-88?

Just giving this thread a bump in hopes of finding any Audiogoners who recorded concerts themselves back in the day (or even did a lot of taping off the radio) and still have the tapes. Interested mostly in rock artists 1970-90.

If you have any tapes, I'd love to hear from you.

I used to tape off the radio a lot on cassette. I'd have to dig through boxes to find any of it. Funny you mention it because my local brick and mortar is trying to get me back into cassette as I have a player in my SUV. He's made me some amazing tapes lately. He's got a room with a huge display or working Nakamishi gear ( not for sale) where we listen to cassette and reel to reel. It's a blast.

I had (still have) a Tandberg reel machine and two Beyer M500 (ribbon) microphones. I have a recording of (classical guitarist) Sharon Isbin playing in Dallas ca. '77. I have a box of tapes of Beto y los Fairlanes, a local Austin band, from around '78. Also some lesser-known guitarists and bands. Nothing earthshaking.

Donjr,

I playback a lot of music these days on my CR-7A Nakamichi. It is impressive.

What years were you taping off the radio and where? Might want to encourage you to dig into those boxes.

Write me if you're serious.
