The Gambles have storage unit and I'm quoting a family member "of 60% of what was at 309" the remaining salvageable stuff from the fire. Some gear and other things were given away after the insurance claim was settled, but for the most part the contents that was salvageable from the fire was put into storage. Hope this helps quell some fears.
I enjoyed the story. However, I volunteer at homeless shelters and meal kitchens. Please don't use "homeless" as a generic term for any violent and destructive vagrant, or someone without shelter who may just have been arrested near an arson in order to close out a case report.
Sorry for using the wrong term. I totally understand that lots of people end up without shelter through no fault of their own and are not dangerous or criminals. I did not mean to give that impression.
Literally was going to say that same thing 😅 I would love to find this! Although I should be grateful that this actually happened to me once, I found a storage room full of new-old stock, and the people responsible didn't want anything to do with it anymore so they just gave it all to me (and I shared some with my friends). But this gear would be on a whole other level lol
Are some of those pictures of the Sigma Sound Studios, 212 North 12th? Was there an actual recording studio in the Philly International building, 309 South Broad St.? Or am I getting them confused?
Joe Tarsia set up a studio in the 309 building in the mid 1970's i believe, previously it had a short stint as Regent Sound 1969-1971-ish, and before that it was the home of Cameo Parkway Studios (The Twist & Mashed Potato were recorded in 309 S Broad St.
So you have pics of mci 400 console and jh16 and 24 series multi track machines. Then you mention an otari concept and an mtr90? The mtr90 is a solid machine, but its not really worth a treasure hunt

Call me a killjoy but anybody sets a cup of liquid down on/near a console is getting a stern talking to ! Just looking at those pics made me nervous 😅
I couldn't agree more.
Good point
And smoking was a full on activity also
As the saying goes, "I've spilt beer on more expensive consoles than this." Smoke was far worse.
@@dannelson6980 All electronics operate on smoke. When you let the smoke out, they stop working.
I love the old phone.
Nice touch
A bunch of people are searching for this storage container starting tomorrow
Yep
Tomorrow? i'm grabbing my car key right now!!!!

The funny thing is the owners probably don't remember where all the gear is stored ;-)
Lets hope it wasn't left in the building before the demo...
Long gone before the building went down...
