I can provide photos and/or quality descriptions of any of these tapes if desired, but most, if not all are in great shape. I didn't buy any tapes that had severe damage or accordioned/unspooled tape hanging out etc. I purchased the majority of these tapes between 10 and 15 years ago and never played most of them, and they've been in a climate-controlled storage unit for most of the last 10 years.

All prices are in US dollars - shipping rates to both the US and Canada are roughly as follows:

1 tape = $11
2-3 tapes = $14
4-7 tapes = $21
8-10 tapes $24.50
12-14 tapes $27.50

Shipping materials are on me, at least until I run out. PM me with inquiries.

Sadly not - Streisand owns her own masters, which is (presumably) the reason there's never been audiophile reissues of any of her albums. Unlike most of the CBS quad mixes that haven't been reissued on any digital disc format, the quad mixes of these albums haven't even shown up in 360RA format on Tidal, so presumably they're buried in whatever vault she keeps them in.

And just for the record, to my own financial detriment I've never sold Q8 tapes of titles I knew that D-V had in the pipeline. Not only because it didn't feel right to do that to an unsuspecting buyer, but also because I didn't want people to be able to divine what D-V were up to based on what I was selling as Mike Dutton likes to play his cards close to his vest.

Thanks for the info,
... well, it sucks but at least we know!!

And yup, that's why jokingly said, "COULD be"...

Cheers!

I can vouch for Steelydave, I tracked his offerings against subsequent DV releases, no such luck.
 
The 3 Brad and I had zero access to in 96-97 were Pink Floyd, Dylan and Babs. She had a good contract for her. She issues what she wants.
 
The following tapes are now sold:

Earth, Wind & Fire - Open Our Eyes
Tony Orlando & Dawn - To Be With You
Santana & Buddy Miles - Live!
Sly and the Family Stone - Small Talk

The remaining tapes listed in the first post of this thread are still available for sale - message me privately with any inquiries.
