How do we know that these are, in fact, the Reportage tapes? He didn't mention anything in the instastory.

I doubt he’d have any other master tapes of Duran’s, since it was the only time he worked with them. For those who are curious about the Q&A, no, I haven’t heard back from MP.

I can confirm the photo of the hard drives was not an old photo. Hi. I am the one who took that screenshot from Michael's instagram story. It was actually a video and in the video he states how he was hearing strange noises and then realized it came from these old hard drives he had plugged in. He commented on how strange it was that they used to make noise. This was shortly after the shut-down for COVID began. I called Michael and asked about them and he was very vague as usual. He will not divulge any information. Period. He had moved a lot of things from his studio to home to play with and work on while staying home. We are close friends but he tells me nothing.
I did ask him yesterday about Karen's request for him to answer questions. He says he never received the questions from her. I will do my best to encourage him to follow-up since he did agree to participate in the Q&A. Karen - send him the questions, I am certain everyone will be disappointed with the vague information you might eventually get from him.

I can confirm those are the Reportage Masters. I saw them and held them in person in Michael's studio in 2006. Nice to hear from you again Andy

I never got an affirmative from him that he wanted the questions and no email address to send them to. But I’ll send the questions to him on Instagram DM and see what I hear back. Thanks.

What harm can a few questions be? Unless of course there are plans to do something with the recordings. Hmm.

this is just my opinion because he really won't tell me anything.
I think he is legally bound to keep his mouth shut.

Thanks. you can email him through his website. michaelpattersonmusic.com I thought you had said he agreed at one time to answer if he was allowed to do it with video and photos.

Leszels, he did. I sent him a few sample questions but never heard back. I’ll email him at the official site and message him that I’ve sent the questions. Thanks for asking him about this.

Karen - send him the questions, I am certain everyone will be disappointed with the vague information you might eventually get from him. Ha! That made me lol! Quality and fair play to the man. He doesn't have to divulge anything just to satisfy our compulsive needs and why would he any way? Surely that would be unprofessional and he could be liable to be sued with regards to this certain album. Different scenario if it had been released but this is unique. On the other hand any vague answers would be a blessing to read... I sincerely hope one day some of it reaches our ears. Who wouldn't want to hear the last songs ever made by the original line up?
