More... Dallesandro , Rich I met a guy at the town dump with some tapes. It seems he cleaned out a house for a ATT Engineer that died and left boxes of Audio Test Tapes. I went to his house and looked into each box and found 3 " 8 " ampex tape reels with notes of Jean Shepherd- JS and Limelight . I knew this might be helpful to you and your website, and he gave these to me. I have not played these, but if you would like to call me regarding these tapes, please do. They seem to be in very good condition and would be glad to share with you. Looks like about 8 Limelight shows 3 JS Notes and One noted Jean Shepherd- Not sure how long or how many, but this guy as an ATT Engineer must have used high quality tape and recorders.
