I love these background glimpses as how music tracks are built especially before the digital desks arrived and made it much easier

By the way in the 1980s I used to design marketing materials for Penny + Giles who manufactured the slides on mixing desks, they were world leaders but their equipment was analogue and they didn't move fast enough into digital. Typical of British manufacturing.

Thanks PP, this is definitely my bag!
I know a man who taught his dog to play the trumpet on the London Underground.
He went from Barking to Tooting in an hour.
