I bought this STS Records live compilation of Ben Webster, Coleman Hawkins etc, performing in Europe during the sixties, during the High End in Munich last month.
Unavailable for purchase elsewhere.
2 track @ 15 IPS, IEC eq.
Anyone else pick up a copy ?

Any good ? I was offered the Nagra tapes, but at 900 Euros for two tapes, I didn't buy them.

I had their other Munich demo tape, the vocals one, and I was underwhelmed.

In general their tapes are very uneven, in my view. There are some very nice tapes, and then some not so good.

Their reels are excellent, though... with tight center holes and virtually no wobble.
