WELCOME TO YOUR FATHER'S DEN!

Welcome to Your Father's Den! Here you will find the"best of the best" of reel to reel music just like dear old Dad use to play. The format and genre will be similar to that of the Hut. I chose to do this blog because there are tapes out there in high quality analog that no one has ever heard before(including myself) It gives the listener a chance to hear some great music as it was meant to be heard. So I hope you will enjoy this new blog and I welcome any comments.

PERSUASIVE PERCUSSION VOL. 2

Well I may be putting the cart before the horse by posting volume two before one, it's just that I was really excited about acquiring this tape recently. I will be posting volume one next. I do believe this along with vol. one, will give you the CD version that is currently being sold for $100+. It's amazing what price people will put on an item that is no longer being produced.
