KNIGHT PLUS-PLAY REEL TO REEL TAPE 1800FT QTY2MOZART PIANO CONC 23 JARRETT COREA

Description: KNIGHT PLUS-PLAY REEL TO REEL TAPE 1800FT QTY2MOZART PIANO CONCERTO #23 two recordings featuring Keith Jarrett & Chick CoreaMOZART PIANO QUARTETS Beaux Arts Trio & Menaham Pressler I came upon a collection of these Knight Plus-Play tapes thinking the recording tape was worn or brittle and these would be reels only. The condition of the storage boxes were good, and visually most of the tapes looked okay for a Plastic (Acetate) Base. I noticed some notes with the tapes that indicated someone used them between 1996-2000, plus/ minus. I decided to do a trial on my 1980s vintage deck and was surprised. I admit, my EQ was used pumping some of the highs to make things right. I did not observe any splices using these reels of tape. The Piano Concerto reel does fill the reel near the edge. This was recorded at 3 3/4 IPS. I also used some old-school Tape Head Lubricant on my deck, which I wouldn't do using tapes from the 1970s or 1980s. Check out the pics of the tapes in the reel. It's not late-1970s smooth; it's a reasonable scattered winding. The Piano Quartet reel with triangles at the edge of the spokes, does look better winding through. If you look at 3 o'clock from the SIDE2 marking, you'll see that spoke has a crack. It seems fine playing through. I'm not sure this reel is the same Knight tape, but it is still an Acetate base tape. This tape I recorded at 7 1/2 IPS. I wasn't satisfied at 3 3/4 IPS; another bit of evidence that it's not the same Knight brand. The music on this tape is the Piano Quartets complete and Mozart Piano Concerto 27 by Jarrett to finish the reel. THE MUSIC: I only recorded on side two of this tape as a trial to verify the quality. Check out the pic which has the program on it. My listening habits of late have been the all-Mozart Piano Concerto Network. Concerto 23, two different recordings are here, recorded at 3 3/4 IPS. Yes, Keith Jarrett and Chick Corea are the piano soloists. REMINDER, this is a 75-year-old tape most likely. This isn't a reference standard, audiophile recording. But it should still be enjoyable if your deck doesn't mind Acetate base tapes. The Piano Quartet tape was recorded on both sides. The tape runs out at the end of the third movement piano cadenza on Piano Concerto 27. PAYPAL or E-BAY are the only payment methods. Prompt payment is always appreciated.
