couldn’t take it out with the tech they had back then.

I’ve heard that they nearly lost the recording because their tape machine had a minor flaw which scraped away some of the tape and which nearly ate the whole tape because of how much multi track overdubbing they were doing.

I think you’re right, that does sound familiar. Could you imagine accidentally destroying the tapes for BR?!

Yea they apparently realised rather late when the tape was close to destroyed.
