Surprised they didn't capitalize more on Ozzy biting the head off a bat during a concert or whizzing on the Alamo. So Ozzy. Then that Sharon and Randy Rhodes deal, so Rock N Roll.... -
I've got an Ozzy record around here somewhere that you can hear a dog down the street from the studio scratching his nuts and really enjoying it. Gotta be true.

Next up: Who was alive back then that did not love Bob's music or him himself? -
IIRC, IndyKlipschFan had his tops up on milk crates in his LSI home theater. Man, that was a long tme ago. -
Have not been able to check the link, but this is incidental dog barking walking outside the studio, and hard to pick up unless you have a keen ear and well resolved system. Believe many here qualify.... Also I Feel Fine typical compact Beatle arrangement not 5:12. And finally, not able to find much Beatles if any at all on the YouTube, they really keep a tight grip on that stuff, one of the few that do. Unfortunate as we may well remember them, but fear they soon to relegated to the dustbin if not easily accessed on the YouTube. Zeppelin noises next, may be easier to pick up....

I guess mornings have turned into my music time the last year. Youtube led me to "Smokin' OPs" then I went to this HUGE release from back then: Like always some tunes come to the forefront as faves even when four or five hits were on the LP like on this one

You will need a few pieces of equipment if anyone decides to build this project. I have been using this soldering station for a number of years. I am on my second one the last one giving me good service and a lot of hours. https://www.parts-express.com/Stahl-Tools-STSSVT-Variable-Temperature-Soldering-Station-374-100 You sill also need solder of course. Get the 60/40 solder. Yes the one with lead. The non lead solder takes skill to use and not worth the bother for such a little amount required in electronic work. More problems result from poor cold solder joints than any other problem with builds. You want to make a good mechanical connection first then heat both parts enough to melt the solder and not the iron melting the solder onto the parts. Do not be afraid of overheating components. They are hard critters to destroy. The new tiny components used these days are placed on a board on a solder pad by a robot. with the solder already there. Then they are put in an oven and heated enough to melt the solder on the pads underneath the part. Those parts are real tiny. If one sneezes looking at one good luck ever seeing it again. Of course you can burn a component up but you are more likely to not flow the solder than to destroy a component. I cannot remember ever overheating a component soldering where it did not work. You will also need a multimeter, preferable auto ranging. Even a very cheap one will be accurate enough for this. I have some $5 ones that still work as good as the expensive ones I have. Test every resistor before installing it with the meter. Less chance of making an error this way. There is no adjustments that need to be made after assembling this amplifier. No reason for you to be inside the amplifier poking around while it is on and hot. I do recommend building a light bulb current limiter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRFRwOnLsZI Not hard to build and parts can be had at a hardware store. With it you will not see smoke if you make a mistake. Other than these things you will need what most every handy man around the house has as far as tools go. I hope there are those that follow through and build one of these amplifier.
