The Ian Thomas Band was a Canadian band from the mid to late '70s and would fall into the "soft rock" catagory, if you're into compartmentalizing things. This appearance was from an SCTV episode where Ian's real life brother, Dave Thomas, plays one half of the clueless duo "Bob and Doug McKenzie".

Here's the closing graphics for WTVT Channel 13 (Tampa - St. Petersburg, FL) "The Best of Hollywood" late movie. It's followed by Deanna Lawrence giving the final news wrapup for the day. This probably dates from the late '70s or early '80s.

Some brains don't ... By: cengeb. on 12 May 12, 15:49:26 Some brains don't work. They think analog and TT matter. Medical imagining is all digital, next time you need medical attention, look for an analog? system.
That's funny, ... By: advancedcomposite. on 12 May 12, 07:30:39 That's funny, sorry? if I sound a little flippant but that's probably why we we still don't understand how the brain works!
This assertion is ... By: advancedcomposite. on 12 May 12, 07:28:37 This assertion is only partially true. In some more gullible populations it is true they believed that the CD was "perfect sound forever". Of course we now know that this was just marketing hype and that the Red Book CD standard is now redundant. Many German and Japanese consumers for example were less inclined to trust this marketing wave and trusted what they heard not what they were told. To their credit they still own collections? that are measured in tens of thousands of pounds.
That's why they ... By: cengeb. on 11 May 12, 22:32:50 That's why they use DIGITAL instruments to figure out how the? brain works.
Nope, The ear is ... By: advancedcomposite. on 11 May 12, 21:30:34 Nope, The ear is based upon mechanical systems. Sensed inputs result in energy variations that? are transmitted as potential differences from the inner ear to the brain. The synapses and neurons in the brain are a complex integration of electrical and chemical reactions that are much more complicated than on off binary codes or pulses and certainly not digital. Do not underestimate the power of nature our simple constructs are crude by comparison
Valuable, that's ... By: cengeb. on 11 May 12, 18:07:20 Valuable, that's why when the CD was introduced by PHILIPS in the 80's LP's where being thrown out by the millions, or sold for 50 cents. Vinyl is? not anything of value, unless some one is willing to pay $30 for a warped snapper
Vinyl records are a ... By: advancedcomposite. on 11 May 12, 08:12:06 Vinyl records are a product that is more than digital. Its an object that over time becomes more valuable. Analog technology against digital technology is not the essence of the debate its about owning something. You dont feel a sense of pride of ownership after you have downloaded a high res digital file. We like to possess an object of its time and we like to build our? lives around these objects. A vinyl collection is like a diary of ones own life and development. A collection is valuable.
Work is being done ... By: cengeb. on 07 May 12, 15:59:51 Work is being done in DIGITAL, using each ATOM as a bit, it will only get better and faster using DIGITAL technology. Moore's law is obsolete as is Analog TT's. You have to stop thinks Fremer knows anything about audio. He? is a paid story teller.
Nope, nerve system ... By: cengeb. on 07 May 12, 15:55:44 Nope, nerve system is DIGITAL! Pulses, and such. Analog had room full? size rooms with the capacity of what can't be done with a USB stick. Analog is dead. With all the bio work being done, it's DIGITAL. And the research itself is being done with DIGITAL instruments, kinda funny. Thinking analog is superior to digital shows what you don't know, and what you think you know. I guess you need to use your RHEOSTAT lighting control, over a digital addressable system. 21st Century, join it.
The adoption of ... By: 6488ott. on 07 May 12, 15:40:52 The adoption of digital technology was only because it had the greatest potential with the present technology. Moore's law is predicting the evolutionary peak of development and citing problems as we approach nano scales. Ever heard of Bio neural research? Its widely acknowledged that computers are comparatively archaic compared to the human brain, and guess what..that's analogue. Do your homework,? and I guarantee I have more electrical/electronic qualifications than you have...
Kids today love ... By: 76Gazz. on 07 May 12, 15:31:48 Kids today love DJing and they want vinyl decks? to do it on so the turntable lives!
No thinking is what ... By: cengeb. on 07 May 12, 15:09:38 No thinking is what gave us DIGITAL more efficient controllers, and sound reproduction and HDTV DIGITAL. Staying with analog would have you not even on this YOU Tube website....the internet and easy access is because of...DIGITAL. Time to get some education. You obviously do not know about early? analog relay realy logic, massive size and power hungry. Whatever you think, but you don't understand electronics, or anything.
With 2 dimensional ... By: 6488ott. on 07 May 12, 10:42:54 With 2 dimensional thinking like that we'd still be living in caves... you need to try thinking outside the? box.
Analog? is dead. ... By: cengeb. on 06 May 12, 22:25:11 Analog? is dead. In lightihg control, video,car ignitions, it was all analog, it's now DIGITAL. Analog will never come back for anything. Rotary phone technology, in a touch tone world. Not gonna happen.
I never said vinyl ... By: 6488ott. on 06 May 12, 17:55:00 I never said vinyl was superior...I said analogue was. One day an analogue recording medium will be developed that is superior to the present systems available, including digital, then where will you be with your argument?
You're so determined to defend digital that you disregard any and all formats that may be borne from? parallel development...
I should have ... By: 1996theawesome1. on 05 May 12, 18:44:54 I should have mentioned that FRC is a robotics competition. We use all DC so we use solder. and? electrician may not be the official term, but it is frequently used at our shop so i don't really care
Must not be U.S.A. ... By: cengeb. on 05 May 12, 16:48:44 Must not be U.S.A. ? Electrical contractor doesn't solder. There are no solder connections in AC power wiring, and the term "electrician" is not a legally recognized term. Licensed" Electrical Contractor" is the legal term. Technician is a vague meaningless term. Electrical Contractors don't deal with TT or audio ckts, they may install systems, they are not dealing with this type of work. This is merely factory assy. Assy worker

You have to solder sensors and LEDs and motors to get the best performance and the electrician is the one in charge of making? sure all the electrical components work as intended

For some reason, I LOVE the show "How It's Made" and this segment is a beautifully shot piece on how vacuum tubes are made. These tubes are being made in the Czech Republic for audio gear and it's amazing how much hand work goes into their creation. They almost look like sculpture.

Great video! This ... By: stratocat9999. on 02 May 12, 00:47:12 Great video! This is a very labor intensive process! I imagine, back when RCA, GE, and others made tubes domestically, it was considerably more automated. I used to pay about 5.00 for a 6L6 GC in the late 60's! Now, good quality 6L6's are uber expensive. Don't have any tube gear at the moment, but plan on getting an old Fisher 500 A or B. 7591 outputs in that one, and? very difficult to locate, but well worth it! Cheers!

The signal? in guitar amps is driven past the tube's "headroom" causing what is called harmonic distortion. In most cases, distortion is undesirable, however, it was discovered that electric guitars sound pretty good with it.
Without tube distortion, electric guitars would sound similar to acoustic guitars, and rock wouldn't exist.

This is a very odd and sometimes annoying video. I apologize for the lousy tape quality. It's jumping out of sync every few seconds, but I noticed that there wasn't a copy of it anywhere here on YT.
