Dear Dime, our great friend and contributor Dan Lampinski passed away today, 14 February 2025.  

To the Dime community that Dan so loved, here is an uncirculated Black Sabbath tape from his collection.  Dan also taped this show, but with his early gear.
The equipment that recorded this tape is unknown, but is likely identical to the Sony equipment that Dan taped with from 1974-1976.

Black Sabbath was Dan's first musical love; they were his first ever concert in 1971.  It's fitting to close the circle with this tape.

A folder of photos and memories of Dan is included in this torrent.

Always remember - the more generous you are with your music, the more it comes back to you.

Team Lampinski

More transfers on Friday? Possibly.

    I started drafting this a few weeks ago but things keep changing. Feel free to disregard, if anything this is more of a diary / journal entry. I was hoping to have a lot more transfers but there is so much stuff on my February list that wasn't posted in years past that I really wanted to listen to. When the choice is the Itchy Pissholes in Vegas and The Who I will usually choose The Who. And I really have to listen to it as a few had inherent and correctible flaws such as CD skips and were thus trashed. And attempts at upgrades get me the exact same thing. Just merely being a conduit for recordings I have no intention of listening to just doesn't work which is why other than the odd untracked master I am not sending anything out I haven't heard. I always intend to post full comments and review but never do. Maybe next Friday I will have more as I recorded a few things and Vegas Anonymous keeps sending me stuff. Also found a treasure trove of untracked master recordings ...

My DVD Collection (Pictures)

 Getting some containers off Amazon but will probably be purging a lot. Not even watching anything right now and barely watch any of these. The format is terrible and those slimline drives are just foul. Dual layers? Even if I can get one to successfully burn now it will be unwatchable in a few years. Too bad, love video but can't make a career out of it. Or if I can, lemme know how.
