I have some old tapes from the 60s taped mostly from John Peel that I can't identify, individual tracks by all sorts of people

Will a phone app catch them I wondered ?
About 1 in 10 and the ones identified were fairly easy

Where can I go next ?

Which app did you use, Mike? I use MusicID which has been pretty good, but they might all use the same database anyway?

IDnow
I reckon it would be the same database. Hoping it isn't

Two of the non indentified
Jefferson Airplane- It's no secret
Terry Reid - unknown title

Picked up
Love - Good times
Edwin Hawkins singers - Oh happy day

I'm in the hands of Jimmy who I work with as he has the phone
Shazam did well but still one track to find so I'll ask him to try MusicID

Martha Velez - Takes a lot to laugh, takes a train to cry
Floating Bridge - You got the power and Brought up wrong
The Mooche - Hot smoke and sasafras
Also found some tests like J. Airplane and Idle Race
Terry Reid not found nor one other where I don't know the female singer of a song where she sings
"i'm driving away it's brighter than day"
I'll listen again and put more words in for a lyric search
