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.

'Extravaganza' is an understatement. Thanks to you and the Macs, we may get to hear all of these in time. Rich, I salute you.

S'Wheat! That's what the say where I live now.

Armpit Studios said...

Are these different audio files than this?

AlgernonBlack said...

Thank you. I do love these tapes.

Algy.

DIDI said...

Thanks for sharing that, Rich! Great tunes (and artists).
@Armpit Studios: You're right, audio files are the same, but the sound quality is a little bit different. Check out!

Armpit Studios said...

The correct answer would be, they are NOT the same audio files, and the sound quality is MILES different. Also, the channels are swapped from that other rip.

Melachrino said...

I usually avoid the 3 ¾ speed reels because the sound quality is not up to par. This tape is an exception. Excellent sound for a 3 ¾ speed tape. Great job as usual Rich.
The fully tagged edition of Rich’s files can be had here.

Outstanding Rich! Thanks for sharing these. I'll see what I can do with some of my old second generation tapes.

Heidi said...

Thanks Phillip!

Hey Oracle, how goes it?

You're welcome Algernon

Interesting Armpit S.

Glad you like DIDI.

Melachrino, Thanks for your great efforts on tagging!

Macs, Can't wait! It would really be cool to get more of the magnetic stuff out there!

Thank Heidi!

Lacey said...

Thank you for this "extravaganza."

It brings back memories of when air travel was more civilized than it is today.

Remember buying the headsets, opening the AA magazine, and finding the audio-channel I wanted to listen to. Granted, it was the 70s and not the 60s, but I'll bet the studios were the same.

Keep up the goo work.

Rich said...

Thanks Lacey,
You hit the nail right on the head. I would sit and listen to this music and think of my travels when I was a kid with my Grandmother. There was none of this 911 to think about when you now board a plane with all of the crap you have to go through just to catch a flight. We're corralled through the terminals like we're the ones that the government has to look out for. It's really sad but a reality.

Rich, this is wonderful stuff. Thanks to you. I deeply appreciate it.

These AA Astrostereo programs are fabulous. Please, please, please, keep 'em coming! Can't thank you enough!

WaverBoy said...

Wow...this is fantastic stuff. Lotsa Enoch Light and other greats. Rich, thanks SO MUCH for encoding and uploading this, and Melachrino, thanks for the excellent tag job! I just stumbled onto this blog, and this was my first download. Absolutely wonderful. Can't wait to explore your blog some more!

Elke said...

Is anyone else having trouble downloading this rar file?
I keep getting stuck at 8 percent of the file and then it stops...

WaverBoy said...

Rich, what might you have in store for us next???

Ken Mac said...

down for the count? sorry to hear that.

bongolong said...

Holy headphones, Batman! This is groovy stuff!!!

Elke said...

Hi... It took me a while, but I figured it out...

This is quite an extravaganza...

thank you...

Rich said...

Hi all! Glad everyone is enjoying the reel. I'll be looking for more AA on reel here soon! I absolutely the AA stuff.
