I believe that was the 1970 Neve 80 series console in The Magic Shop in Soho, NYC. It came from the BBC, two consoles were put together with the help of Rupert Neve to create 56 inputs. It’s the only console like it. And yes, Bowie did record there.

The Magic Shop went out of business in 2016. The high rent did them in. The console went to Sonic Circus for a restoration and was bought by The Barn, located in Salon, Iowa.

That's Solon, IA. About 45 minutes from my house.

Oh man, I had to quit watching after they managed to get the dust cover on without hurting themselves. It took two of them to do a lame job in twice the time it usually took me to do an exemplary one when I was a slick-sleeved Army private. If I had walked away from my bunk and left it like they did I'd have found all the bedding on the floor when I came back from training.

never mind the rack...there're sneakers and flipflops under there. What the hey?

Right now I am on the prowl for a new winter coat, so whatever money I can save elsewhere will be going into it. Been looking at a North Face today and will be checking out some others tomorrow.

M65 with button in liner and hood. I was outside at -15 in mine a couple days ago.

I feel for those critters. When it gets down into the sub-zeroes I just marvel how they survive with such a short coat and little to eat.

They come to my bird feeder and clean it out. Well, they did until I started sprinkling a little ground cayenne pepper in with the seed. Birds don't taste hot, but the deer do. Problem solved. Hooved rats with good PR is all those things are. :eyebrow:

Didn't see any expedition grade womens' parkas at North Face. Who are they and what have they done to my North Face?

Of course I need an expedition grade parka only in my head as I've not been dropped into the hell that is an indeterminate time until pickup on Friday night at Chicago O'Hare. In business clothes.

Interesting week.
Monday night. -25° in Omaha, NE
Tuesday. +27° in Cheyenne, WY
Wednesday -17° in Casper, WY
Wednesday night -24° in Laramie, WY
10"-12" of fresh snowfall on I-80 back to.....
Thursday +16° in Cheyenne, WY
Presently + 7° in Omaha, NE

Apparently, the surefire recipe for a sinus headache is
50° temperature swings, with a little altitude thrown in.
Can't wait to see what Chicago holds for me tomorrow. :bored:
