Yes, I know that it's an SA-X actually. But who could afford that? And it 's a good picture, remember those? I had more than a hundred of those - those and XL2's. With a different album on each side. It still feeds associations between bands today I'm sure. The first one? Too Fast For Love And Battle Hymns - both brand new albums. That would make it 1982.

I remember recording those two albums for you and many more after that. I recall you tracking me down in Drivers Ed class with a backpack of albums and cassettes. I think Ron Lowney told you that I had a decent tape deck and might be interested. I have to say that the first few albums took a while to catch on for me because I was more interested in Van Halen and Rush at the time. I also use to berate you because your records were so dirty. Haha.

It was 1985, an audiophile friend of my father saw me watching a sealed SA-X90, he said to me: "take it".
I was 12 I kept sealed 3 months, then I recorded in a Teac Z-7000, what a fantastic sound it was the comabination from DECK and the MOL tape formulation

Cool man I feel what you're saying, what music was it?

I recorded some of Duran Duran, John Fogerty and Howard Jones. I remember watching the SA-X reels rolling through the walkman window.
