From the Michael Lee tape archives. This tape was recorded live at The Mind Shaft in San Francisco. I was able to salvage most of the recording, minus the last 42 minutes of Side B. The recording was on Scotch brand reel-to-reel tape. This brand of tape is notorious for sticky shed syndrome. This is where the tape becomes sticky and binding starts to fall apart and clog the tape machine heads. "Baking" the tape is a process of drying the tape out in a food dehydrator, to try and restore the binding to it's original state, to be able to to try and digitize it. Usually this process only takes 2 hours in the dehydrator. This tape took 6 hours in the dehydrator, and it was still clogging the heads on the tape machine.
