Goodbye Nakamichi
In 1990, when I had more money than common sense, I bought a top-of-the-line cassette deck from Nakamichi for around $1000.
Don’t get me wrong, it is a fantastic and great sounding cassette deck. In fact, in critical listening tests more people could not tell the difference between masters and cassette copies on most common listening environments. (you could using studio monitors, but not in cars)

Since I have found essentially a gold mine worth of original material recently on cassettes, I have been transferring the material onto a computer while David and I have been working on other things.
Unfortunately, yesterday during one of the transfers, the Nakamichi stopped working. I had barely gotten 5 cassettes done and it was to be no more.
So I called my friend Stan Ginsel and asked to borrow his TASCAM 122 cassette deck.

Today, we’re gonna hook the TASCAM up and continue the transfers onto the computer.
We’re also writing a new song and will probably be the final full tune for the Wanderer Awakening project.
