Here's a photo of Sarah Vaughn and Quincy Jones in Paris in 1958. After looking at this photo I think Sarah is singing along with the tape playing. This is based on the expression on Quincy's face, he's looking like he's enjoying what she's doing. That's a beautiful suitcase recorder they're using.

Is it live, or is it Memorex?
Oh, I crack myself up sometimes!
I totally cannot tell what kind it is -- Telefunken, maybe? Nope, doesn't look like enough letters... So many European portables look(ed) like that recorder! I, briefly, "had" one, an Elizabethan I found (of course) at the Harvard, MA town dump. IIRC, it was a 220v machine and... I actually don't remember what became of it. It's not here now, I know that!

Grundig, maybe?
EDIT: Grundig TK830?

Whatever it is, I really like the little zippered pouch in the top cover for the mics and cables

It is a Grundig, I think - my older cousin had one when I was a kid. The case was different, but I remember the zip. My temporary uncle (the guy who was around with his mother at the time) was a merchant sailor and gave me a tape recorder which he said was used on a ship. Whether they threw it away or he "liberated" it, I don't know. It was a Brenell. I can remember recording Top of the Pops off the BBC from the TV's speaker via a little crystal mic. I can also remember my cousin and I recording my mother snoring while asleep in her chair and her saying we had faked it. The recorder was in really bad shape, and it was in a wooden case with a hinged lid covered with sticky back plastic covering in a sort of fake marble pattern. On Googling, I think the wooden case was a mod and my closest memory is this:
