Oh ok. I didn't know how difficult it would be to duplicate.

Master Reels are those old actual REELS of tape, some very large, some not so big, but they have to be played on reel to reel players of the Old School STUDIO variety. When we bought all those Stevie Masters in 2001~2005, we had to spend $$$$$$$$ getting them transfered in a studio and then copied to CD for the individual members of the group (everything in Daniella's thread is what we had done then). In the studio, songs were mixed and worked with ~ that's how the a capellas came about; we just stripped the music away from Stevie's vocals. Stevie didn't record them as a capella; we created them after the fact.

Some Reels were falling to pieces, crumbling into dust from the years.

So, if these are Master Reels from Rock A Little, it will also cost the winner a lot of money to have them transfered in a studio as well. So, maybe the winner will want contributions???????? I'd pay!!!

Edit: When I say "we", it was really a very hard~working woman who went into the studio and worked with the technicians to do all of this. SHE did ALL of the hard work, while we just supported the project with $$. Sorry I used the term "we", because creating those Stevie a capellas were 100% HER idea and creations. That's how many of the dance remixes of unreleased songs like "Baby Doll", "The Dealer" and more were done, from the a capellas she worked on in the studio.

I had the impression that the ebay auction was for the cassettes, which I assume contain recordings directly from the master reels.
Perhaps whoever bought these is a member of The Ledge and has yet to make contact? Maybe we just need to remain patient for a few days and see what transpires. I'm hopeful that these recordings will be shared. Oh to have quality copies of "She Loves Him Still", "Tied Up" and "Jimmy, Come On Back", not to mention the other unknown demo tracks, would be heaven sent!

I'm also hoping that a fellow ledgie won the bid on EBay, idk but i suspect that someone from Stevie's camp may of snapped them up, if they new some of Stevie's unknown demo's [ forgotten gems] were included in those reels.
