notes
I borrowed the tape from a Little Express enthusiast in the area in exchange for a copy of the dub I've uploaded here. The sound is good, a B+ I'd say. The video has been through a few generations. There's smearing and saturation, there's places where it has that flat look and the distance shots lack detail, however I find it quite watchable. I give it a C+ to a B, depending on the lighting at any given moment. As usual, if anyone has something better, I'd sure love a copy. Cover included.
