You forgot to mention the two Pink Floyd programmes before and after it at
21.00 and 23.00.

Though I don't think Pink Floyd ever used Marshalls.
 
It was all Hi-Watts with a load of pedals and Leslie cabinets.

** Plus a lot of WEM amplifier and cabinets.
 
This classic pic from the back cover of "Ummagumma" shows Floyd's equipment.

There's a Revox A77, a Binson Echorec drum echo and two Hi-Watts hiding behind band members.
 
I also see 3 Sennheiser MD409s at the front.
 
They even carried a few spare 12-inch speakers.

I stopped listening to the Floyd after "The Wall".
Great album, but that was enough of Roger Waters' whining for me.
 
Still think David Gilmour is one of the greatest guitarists ever to walk
the planet.
I think its the understatement he gets so right.

Agreed. I have also always loved Mark Knopfler's work

** Saw them play live in Sydney, back in August 1971 at Randwick Race Course, mid afternoon. Not the best venue or time.
 
The Revox A77 opened the set, reels spinning fast, with a stereo recording of a DC3 starting up, taxying and then taking off across the stage from right to
left at realistic volume.
 
The band immediately broke into "One of these Days" from their not yet released "Meddle" album.
 
Here is a short clip from that concert:

There was another unusual doc in that Fri spot a couple of months back.
The life story of one Rupert Neve mixing console , was it in Sound City
studios in the states, somewhere famous anyway.

Just listened to Meddle for the first time in decades.
 
My God, that is an album and a half.
I'd forgotten the intense pleasure "Echoes" used to bring me.
 
Was that really made 43 years ago? Blimey.

I'm a vampire and I need to drink two liters of
human blood per week. Had a provider in a hospital
but recently passed away. Due to increasing health
restrictions is getting harder to get it.
Any advice on where to find it.

>Actually I have some of that but don't use it because someone told me it is too harsh for espresso machines and was designed for drip coffee makers. I think I Wil try to rolll it out as, -with a formerly completely blocked machine, - there is no knowing what is in there!
 
To the extent possible only use it on removable parts. Do not place it in
the boiler. I suppose you could support a cup to soak the nozzle in. It
normally gets the job done for me. Rinse thoroughly with both cold and
hot water, while rubbing the parts down.

The worst thing is "a ground on the line", ie. the insulation has
a pinhole in it, and when the ground is wet, it makes a connection
from one of the phone line wires to the earth. You can get crackling,
buzzing, whistles and pops, as well as a completely dead line.
 
It can be at your property where the line is buried to the house, or
in buried cables some miles away, between you and the central office.
 
Another problem can be corrosion on the wire junctions or in the lightning
protector at your service entry.
