These have just come up on my "eek a mouse" notification email from ebay. There are three master tapes from USA recording studios. Whats the deal with this? Ive never seen this sort of thing before. Presumably they are not originals. Is this even legal to sell?
Maybe they are re-cuts done in USA?

Hope its ok to link to one, I am in no way affiliated with the seller, just very curious.

They appear to be nineties recordings, (not the originals), it's perfectly legal to sell them, if you are the owner, but the buyer won't own the copyrights, either to those recordings, or the publishing, so you couldn't release them without permission.

The other bigger problem is that there aren't many 2" tape machines around these days, but if you happen to have one you could have fun doing your own mixes.
