Master Tapes - Genuine or Fake

Agreed. Something about that organic presence that is so real and different from other kinds of audio presences.

your latest Oscar Peterson tape clearly demonstrates the presence of tape as a credible medium IMO

Thank you so much. Yes, it is quite startling in sound for a 1961 tape. And the playing is wondrous.

I would just about to say Ditto! to that comment - I listened to it last night and what a pleasure! Thank you, Jonathan for this gem!

If my display was not saying "Mono" I would probably not even notice.

Thank you too. Yes, it is mono and just wonderful to listen to. I'm so glad you like it.

Not only does the Oscar Peterson tape sound great and contain great music, but it is a bargain at $150. Anyone else selling that tape would charge 3 times the price, or more. I realize there are many factors involved in the cost of providing tape copies, but Jonathan continues to feed us tape heads affordable music on tape. Thank you.

Agreed, Jonathan provides the best bargains in commercial tapes these days. At last count I have 38 of his albums! Larry

I'm really glad I purchased my Oscar Peterson tapes when it appears no one else wanted them. AKA, less then $20 each. As an aside, a close friend of mine is a piano teacher and she owns one of Oscar Peterson's pianos.
