Tut Taylor Archive Reel #59 contains a circa mid-1960's pickin' session with Tut's bluegrass 

buddies, "The Bluegrass Five"-J.N. & Onie Baxter, Ron Norman, Hughie Wylie, & Howard McGuire, 

along with Tut.  Norman, in typical fashion, really shines, especially on the Don Reno-inspired, 

"Bells of St. Mary's" and "Lady in Spain".

built tape head preamplifier incorporating 2003 era technology and components

including all metal film resistors, polypropelene coupling capacitors, and low ESR 

electrolytic supply bypass capacitors.  The resulting analog signal was digitized 

by a Mytek Digital 8X96 analog to digital converter using Steinberg Nuendo as the 

recording software and saved as a 24 bit 48 kHz wave file.
