This was recorded on Rudy's reel to reel machine, I think a 1/2 track. All the other songs on this page were recorded on cassette, and dubs were done deck to deck. In both situations as much was done live as possible to limit dubs which meant lost quality of the previous tracks.

All these cassettes are ancient and one even broke after we captured the track to digital.
