The tape is the first copy of the original master tape used to press Barbra's Memories LP in 1981. The digitized audio wasn't processed in any way.

Did you use any noise reduction when made the dub?

I'm calling this one. The actual version/mix of this song on the "Wet" album runs 8:24, and the one you posted is actually the Columbia 45 edit of that mix. I'm shocked that no one caught this. If you don't believe me, check it out yourselves.

I am sure I saw B and D sing this song on TV soon after it came out. Does anyone else remember that?

What a fantastic opportunity to hear this. That creamy warm punch! I've been looking for analog examples like this to compare my home DAW computer with. It's nice to discover how CLOSE Nomad Factory's Magnet II vst plugin comes to this with the A807 preset! I'm subscribing.

Amon, to be exact this is a copy of the tape sent out to the vinyl pressing plant. That tape was supposed to be returned, but somehow it got stuck here :)

DSD and 192/24 is just NOW getting to this level of detail and retrieval. 35 years of bad sound along with the post-1990's dB war on CD with it all compressed to junk. This isn't the master, by the way. This tape being played is a safety master. Getting actual master tapes to just play them is rare, dangerous for the tape, and requires huge amounts of political pull at the company.

Reel to reel tape recording - what's that? lol . I miss the days of this kind of recording & the weird things things that can happen in a recording studio, which is a world of it's own. We need to keep talking about those days way back when breakthroughs occured.

Nagyszerű gép, még így a videón is hallható az analóg hang kellemes karaktere. Gratulálok hozzá.

This version, which was never widespread and has a different arrangement is the one I've always preferred. I've only heard it in 'Memories' LP. Sounds great here, since playing it from the vinyl sounds slightly sped-up and there's too much treble in the voices. Thanks for posting this jewel!

I just discovered the phrase "is enough" which they are singing at the end. Honestly, I don't know the reason why is the print-through so narrowband, normally it's not. The tape I used is RMG SM911 and the original was a BASF SPR50 I believe, but I'm not quite sure on that. The equipment used to copy the master tape was my A807 on the playback side and a Studer C37 on the recording side.

Thanks for your kindness. I'm and "old guard" sound technician, too familiar with magnetic recording from many years, but when some unusual phenomenon appears in a tape, one begins to thing about print-through, erasing deficiences, demodulation of RFfrom broadcasting stations or some other "right" causes, but I believe to hear even a phrase said in Spanish here. Are there some other phenomenon that has a non-scientific explanation about magnetic recording? Very odd, curious and strange.
