Re: Hello from Ireland
Hello Stephen and welcome. Could you tell us your uncle's name? Sounds like he may have been one of the legendary members of the International Club Crosby.

Re: Hello from Ireland
Let me add my welcome to another Steve. It is nice also to hear of someone else keeping the reel-to-reel format alive.
