Hi Dave (& you all):
One recording is on the same tape as we used to
reconstruct the 1978 Getting Wound Up, so it may be on
two casettes or more and just may have 7 seconds
missing (as Getting Wound Up has). This one is 258/12/13 16 May
1978, Nicholas Parsons with Kenneth
Williams, Clement Freud, Peter Jones and Sheila
Hancock, making up.
Like mr Nylon, my copy too is poor, therefore it's safe to assume
that there are only poor recordings of this show in circulation. An
upgraded version would be splendid.
The other one on a single cassette is 251/12/6
28 March 1978, Nicholas Parsons with
Kenneth
Williams, Clement Freud, Peter Jones and
Sheila Hancock, making a good start.
I don't know how or why, but my version of this show is actually
pretty good. It can be better and your tape probably is, but I can't
hear any of this whistling noise you and mr Nylon talk about.
This *may* be one of the shows that I've done restoration on myself,
stupid me has not taken any notes on what shows I've done that with,
but a new version from your vault would probably be better
regardless.
So there you go. The #258 show would be yet another amazing find
from your archive, and the #251 one is probably also very welcome by
the whole community.
As always, I'll gladly be of assistance with audio restoration or
encoding to mp3 or any other format should the need be there.
