...taping live gigs and staying up to record the Peel Sessions before they even thought about releasing them on vinyl more like!!

I used aot of BASF in the early days then went THAT and TDK. Always tried to get the mid to higher end. Got superb results with a Teac V-8000 S and TDK MAXG's.

Still got a couple of decks kicking around, not that they ever get any use. A Teac V-5000 sits by the main system just in case and for the PC got a Technics RS-BX501, which is not the greatest deck I'v ever used but again for just in case purposes. Has served me well copying old live concerts from tape to the PC though.

Maybe we could put up lists of rare shows etc. we have on tape that we could swap/donate to other interested forum members (strictly no selling though). I have Kraftwerk live '81 and 91', Depeche Mode '84, Associates '83 and a few David Sylvian live sets from the 'Everything and Nothing' tour. Got three different shows of the E&N tour, one at the Warfield, San Francisco that I personally recorded and had sent off to a contact at a studio for re-mastering. Also got the Boston and New York gigs too, the NYC one is good to have because Ryuichi Sakamotto nakes an appearance on that.
