I don't think Jen has realized the Pandoras Box she opened by getting me that camcorder.
Anyway, here is a clip of one of my reel to reels playing. This was basically just a "test" video.
Anyone recognize the song?

Is that the extended intro to this song?

Matt D:
That is awesome! 
I know the song very well but the artist escapes me right now.
My guess would be either; Ocean Blue, The Cure, New Order or Modern English.

Quoting Superfly (Reply 4):
The Cure, New Order
Definitely not The Cure and too upbeat for New Order. The key is figuring out the start of the vocals in the end of the clip. I need more time...I might figure this one out.

Then it would have to be Ocean Blue.
I know Matt D is a huge fan of Ocean Blue.

Yep...The Ocean Blue is the band. The song is called "Between Something and Nothing." Just took me a little bit of time to figure it out.

Can't say I recognize the song, but cool reel to reel. Way nicer than mine! I have a 1970s Califone with French and English lettering.

Is there an extended version to YMCA? I know there is one to Macho Man. Once when I was in high school my Buddy Gay Mike came over to a party (he was still in the closet back then) and he brought some records and one was the Macho Man album. I looked at him funny because it was disco and all, but after we were all beered up I played it. Macho man fades into a song that is about being gay or something. I remembered the girls liked it. I also heard it at a night club once too.

Yup. DeltaGator got it.
Thanks Falstaff: I have to say myself that it is a nice deck. Superfly has seen it. Indeed I have a picture of him posing in front of it. Too bad that the quality on those YouTube videos is so damn mediocre. Indeed the motion isn't even steady; the video makes it look like the reels are spinning in a jerking motion when in reality (and on the original video) they are are spinning at steady continuous speed.
Shall I post another?

How about a mystery song on an 8-track? I know Superfly can help you out there!

Reel to Reel tape recorders are out of date old school technology. Get a cassette player. Much more portable.
