Photos of the tape included.
The quality is pretty good. Not superb or crystal clear, but listenable and perhaps a great upgrade in lineage and a little quality for some Bowie collectors
The sound quality is pretty good until Space Oddity where it starts to sound more distant. The quality comes back at the end of The Jean Genie.
Perhaps the taper change positions or had to hide his recorder. Who knows?
