1977Appellant argues that it does not meet the test required of a magnetic tape recording as set forth in Fikes v. State, 263 Ala. 89, 98 , 81 So.2d 303, 311 , rev’d on other grounds, 352 U.S. 191 , 77 S.Ct. 281 , 1 L.Ed.2d 246 , that, “a magnetic tape recording may be used as evidence when it is of matters otherwise legal, and provided the proper safeguards are shown to have been used so as to protect the recording against error” or spoliation and the speakers as recorded “[are] properly identified and adequate safeguards taken to insure authenticity.” We think the tape meets that test.
