An early version of AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck” and Metallica performing with Marianne Faithfull are recordings among the mountain of tapes from the old Windmill Lane recording studios outside of Dublin looking for a home.
The Irish Times reports more than 1,000 tapes, weighing a ton, which are filling up the attic in the new Windmill Lane studios in Ringsend, are waiting to be reclaimed by the artists or recording companies that recorded them.
The two-inch multitrack tapes were used in the days before digital technology took over; the studio plans to begin destroying the tapes in May if they remain unclaimed.
