This tape had been made for Jimmy O'Brien Moran by Breandan Breathnach; the content that Breathnach intended for O'Brien Moran is that on tracks 1–16. That material was recorded @ 3 3/4 ips in quarter-track format, and thus appears on bands one and four of the tape. However, the tape had previously contained other material, recorded in half-track format at 3 3/4 ips and 1 7/8ips. This meant that some of this earlier material is now playable only backwards and at different speeds on the tape.
