Gladys Night’s original 2” 24 track master recordings were exhumed from a soggy basement in NJ and brought to Dubway for tape restoration and digitization. Among the tracks - her original mega hit, “Midnight Train to Georgia.” Holy Cow!
With the audio files now safely ensconced in the cyber vaults of Sony, one wonders about the countless other classics that are hidden away, biding their time on some moldy shelf, awaiting discovery.
Hearing the Pips backing vocals, soloed, was one of those special, inspiring moments afforded by our access to multitracks from the past. (We also digitized the Fugees’ The Score.)
Dubway’s 2 inch Studer tape deck earned its stripes on this one!
