The Buck Dharma Limited Edition Archive Series is three CD's culled from Buck's private tape vault, featuring his original demo recordings of BÖC hits and songs and studio oddities never previously released, all newly mastered by Buck with state of the art digital gear.
The recordings begin in the mid '70s with Buck's purchase of a Teac 3340S, an early affordable 4 Track Multi Track recorder, pictured on the back of the Volume 1 CD package.
Tunes recorded at Buck's Melville, NY and Green Lawn, NY residences include among others, "Don't Fear The Reaper" and "Godzilla". In the late '70s, he upgraded his studio with a Teac 80-8, an 8 track recorder using 1/2" tape and a Teac console. most of the other songs were recorded on that machine.
Later he again upgraded to an Akai 1214 12 track recorder and then to ADAT 16 track digital and today uses a 24 bit digital Hard Drive setup to create professional master quality output.
All vintage analog tapes were "baked" to restore playability, digitized at 24 bits/44.1 kHz and mastered to 16 bit CD at the final stage of the process.
Unless otherwise noted, all instruments and vocals are by Buck.
