How many of you have old cassette recordings of yourself?

I still have a box with around 12 cassette tapes and old diskettes with midi files on them. Here is a jam I got out of one of the tapes

Funny thing about that old track, my friend who played bass on it had that groovy bass riff ready, i added the chords over it, we created that "cheezy" electronic beat and basic rhythm midi track using my Kawai K1 and sequencer (no computer back then), you can feel we missed a few tempo timing. The whole thing was recorded with a Fostex four track. The guitar solo is a one take. I wonder if I could still play this as I did on that day.

The "do-do-do-do-do" thing was a tribute to a local humoristic group that had a tv show back with a sketch which a pseudo-false-alien.
 
I have several. I used an old boom box. We would put it in the center of room, hit record and play away. I'll need to find a way to play them again.

It was great. The whole thing was a sign of the times.. It takes me back..:giggle:
 
Here's another mic less wonder.. Still in my guitar hero phase.. Still the ADA/Quadraverb straight in..
When I go into the solo, the dropout is the channel lag when I switch to a more midrange sound on the ADA.

Man, that thread is bringing back some good feeling in my memory and makes me realize how old I am right now. :ROFLMAO:

My plans back then, as I thought that improv was kinda cool, was to make that tune the "intro" of three instrumentals. The 2nd one was recorded and the third partly but never finished. I once tried to redo the 2nd one with all the modern gear I have now and never was able to get the vibe from the original recording.

When you look back, it seemed to go by fast..
I just pulled out that 4-track and transferred that last clip..
I put n a lot of time on that thing.. It was 30 years ago..

I remember I bought it used but in great shape off an Ad posted in the local paper.. Back when you had to call and ask it it was still available.. Try to get someone to answer a phone now..
I think he was selling weed at the time because the short time i was there people were coming and going.. :ROFLMAO:

The fuzzy direct sound hides a lot of clams.. By the time I was done with that ADA I think the gains were on 10!
I was still living at home and migrated to the basement so I could timker down there. Still smoking a lot of weed.. :ROFLMAO:
