In this short film from 1970, Sid gets a tape recorder for Christmas and explores what it can do. From the YouTube description:
Sid Laverents, a retired Convair engineer, has long been a legend in the amateur film community. Multiple SIDosis is a kind of latter-day trick film, in which Sid reprises the one-man band act he performed as a traveling vaudevillian in the '20s and '30s. This self-reflexive masterpiece features Sid--or rather many, many Sids--hysterically performing the song Nola, recorded with Sid's ingenious sound-on-sound looping technique and filmed with the use of his handmade in-camera mattes.(via Metafilter)
