	The tape is a 7.5 inch per second mono recording.  The Scotch #207 mylar 
reel was recorded on a Wollensak Reel to Reel outside in Galax, VA in the first
half of the 1960s.  The reel was played on a modified Revox A77 reel-to-reel
machine with a Reutelhuber custom designed and 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.  

	Post processing and was done by David Avery with Nuendo using the 
following Waves Plugins: Q10, X-Hum, S1 Stereoimager and L2.  The file was dithered
down to a 16 bit/44.1kHz wave file.
