I was then introduced to Bill, and he told me the story: they had rented a mobile recording truck to record the tour, but they got stuck in bad weather in Rochester. Bill loved the sound of the venue from the early show and wanted to chronicle the late show in some (inexpensive) way. We struck a deal whereby I would “go home to get my DAT” (I of course did not tell him that I had it with me or that I recorded the early show) to record the late show and, in exchange, I could run a cassette version for myself (he offered to send me a cassette copy of the DAT, but I suspected that would never actually happen, so I told him I’d bring a cassette deck as well).
So I did in fact go home, picked up my trusted Sony TCD-5M, dropped off the early show master DAT tape, and went back to the venue. I then proceeded to do as arranged: I recorded both to DAT (for Bill) and cassette (for me). I’ve made hundreds upon hundreds upon hundreds of board masters, but I can’t recall another time of a British Prog Musician actually allowing someone to patch in.
