The audio reel tape is now making a comeback in the world of music. As the highest quality medium for analogue recording and playback, magnetic tape technology has not only returned: after more than 30 years during which the technology was almost completely displaced by digital technology, it is now receiving the appreciation it deserves thanks to a small group of enthusiasts who are keeping it alive.
Live Acoustic Session Pure Analogue Recording - Little G Weevil (Gábor Szűcs) started his blues career at home in Hungary, then moved to the US where he started to work as a dishwasher, but in 2013 he won the worlds greatest blues competition, the International Blues Challenge.
