Tale of the tape

[David]

Let’s get a pool going to buy the tape, and then we can record something over it to stand in solidarity with M

Now THIS is what I’m paying for! Original reporting! Tracking down mystery engineers! Rediscovered lost tapes! Great stuff!

[Rob M]

I cried when I heard this tape...

Donald was known to record and rerecord his vocal tracks piecemeal. That could be why the cassette is missing some vocals and the Dat had all of them

What a way to reel in the weekend! Thanks so much to Jake and Cimcie for sharing this with us!!! I’ll be saving up my piasters for that auction…

This is absolutely amazing. The Nichols sisters deserve to recoup every penny they've invested and more

[Chad]

Best. Day. Ever.

Jake, what a great find! And tracking down and interviewing "M". Poor guy. Fantastic work!

Your blog is terrific.

Would love to know more about the origins of the DAT tape, since DAT wasn't introduced until 1987, a good 8+ years after Second Arrangement was erased.

[Matt]

Wow, just wow. Thank you!

[Ira Apfel]

Can I make a confession? I don’t think the Second Arrangement is very good. Sorry!

[AEA]

Thank you!!
