We've come a long way

A look at how records were made...

And a look at the venerable Nagra - yes, reel-to-reel analog tape recorders were used on location.

I knew I was funny :)

Yeah, most kids these days don't know that we had to lug our tape equipment uphill both ways in the snow to our film shoots.
 
In 1977 my keyboard rig was a Hammond B-3 w/147 Leslie, a Rhodes 73 stage piano, a Mellotron and a MiniMoog plus mixer, amp, speaker cabs, Echoplex, etc. It was almost literally a half ton of equipment. Now all of that fits into a 25lb keyboard - including speakers!
