... Flim & the BB's was a contemporary jazz band that was among the first bands to record albums digitally.

The group's self-titled debut album was recorded in 1978 at Sound 80 and was ostensibly going to be a direct to disc recording.
Nevertheless, 3M placed an experimental prototype 50.4 kHz digital recorder in the control room as a backup to the direct-to-disc lathe.
Because of the "direct-to-disc" setup (recording directly onto a lacquer platter) the band was required to play the entire LP side without stopping and without being able to do any editing afterward.
When the resulting acetate disc was deemed inferior in sound quality to the digital master tape, the LP record was pressed from that digital backup tape, making it the second-ever U.S. commercially available digital recording.
Since the machine used was a one-of-a-kind prototype, built before any digital recording standards were established"and dismantled within months"there is currently no way to reissue that first album on either LP or CD.[2]
Flim and the BB's recorded its second album, Tricycle, for DMP Digital Music Products, an audiophile record label started by Tom Jung. The album was the first non-classical recording to be released in compact disc format.

It was also the first jazz album to be recorded, mastered, and delivered in the digital domain. ...
