More interest than I would have expected.

The only problem in playing tape under show conditions is the the difficulty of finding and playing individual tracks and the lengthy time involved in rewinding -- all the stuff that we take for granted at home but not much fun when you're trying to minimize "dead air" at a show. "Kind of Blue" was a definite hit, though. In a comparison with a fine turntable playing one of the best KOB LPs, the tape pretty much ruled.
