That was pretty cool. Thanks for sharing. I just wish they didn't play an instrument, I was more curious about listening to the voices talking and the clarity of it, sounding as if was just recorded this year. That recording will never degrade.

I did some Googling and there's nothing about the first digital recording. It says something about 1957. So do you have a sorce?

I just read the article. I assume that the recording, with the voice and all was the first recording done and saved to a computer. This is just a recording done with recording equpment back then, recording a computer playing a tune, like a Atari plays a tune.
