In those days we did not have a small cassette tape recorder nor video camera to carry into concert hall. That's probably main reason why we do not have NBD and NBJ recordings more even illegally.

In fact even in New Kingston Trio days circa 1971 coming to Tokyo for concert, I did not have mp3 recorder nor Sony video. Therefore I decided to carry 5-inch desktop tape recorder with me hided into paper bag.

The recorded tape has already been abandoned due to messy situation in 50 years humid air. But I had rerecorded them in digitized multi track tape to Sony Hi-8 video cassette but its machine has been also malfunctioned.

Things like that, it's difficult to keep data alive forever. Our memories in own brain can be kept forever even "'neath the willow tree or a cross of wood"

Here are some of NKT recordings kept in my web page. Please enjoy them instead of NBD and NBJ.
