A fire breaks out at 02:14 in room B2-114 on September 9 (09/09). Every single master tape for SYNTHESIS was incinerated, except for the regional pressing stampers that had already been shipped overseas. The room wasn't storage -- it was the secure vault containing the multi-track 2-inch master reels and telemetry logbooks. Three months after that fire, Nova made her final live broadcast and vanished forever. -- Mike Souza Tape trading list upon request. SASE required for international mail.
