This is the 4th of the T.K. tapes, which I recorded on a 1963 model Grundig tk18 reel-to-reel tape recorder, back in 1970 ! I took the top off, this time, so you can take a look at what goes on inside :]

On the previous two vids I just pointed a mic at the recorder's loudspeaker. This time I made-up a lead to take the line-level 'extension speaker out' signal from the din socket on the Grundig. I fed this into a tapco link usb d/a converter and recorded digitally on my iMac g4, using Garageband. I added a little echo and reverb.

So . . . a little tune I made-up & recorded nearly 40 years ago with the aid of valve-power, oxide-coated tape and a spinning cast-iron flywheel, to reduce 'wow & flutter', . . .somehow ends up as a digital recording on YouTube. I am totally amazed at the sound quality - it could have been recorded last week, rather than almost 40 years ago!

It was played on my first guitar, an Eko jumbo acoustic which I bought s/h for £3. It had a great tone, but the action was horrible - like playing railway lines ! The guitars which teens could afford, back then, were so dreadful as to be almost unplayable. My elder bro' gave up in frustration, but I'm a cussed sorta guy so I stuck with it. :p

Hope you enjoy seeing my little piece of audio history and maybe you'll be as amazed as I am. From valves and flywheels to memory sticks and mp3's in one lifetime. No wonder I feel tired sometimes :p
