Artist Track Album Label Year Comments
Evan Doorbell  Delta 762 3 Conference   Favoriting     1978   
 
Evan Doorbell  QC514-285ESS1   Favoriting     1974  This is a #1 ESS in downtown Montreal, featuring the Canadian "Pre- 'Dial Tone First'" arrangement, which was implemented on blue Northern Centurion coin phones. I don't know whether this was a "semi-DTF" arrangement or a crude temporary DTF arrangement which allowed things like "0" to be dialed without a coin.

@Aaron: If my brain wasn't on strike, I'd remember the intro an repeat, but, basically an analogue (insert technology) testing a multiple phone lines around 1978, the narrator was speaking from 2003, and said the fidelity was better then digital fidelity in 2003, and this recording was used at the conference to demonstrate said technology (still in development). as for the situation we find these characters, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hey everyone! Sorry, dealing with a minor issue here. This track is one of Evan Doobell's non-narrated tapes of a conference line in 1978, capturing a lot of mechanical phone switches from the era

Listening at same time to this and rare recording of Annapurna Devi, highly regarded bass sitar player who was married to Ravi Shankar in early life and withdrew from the public and performing for many decades up to her death last week. I wasn't familiar with her story. Now music she created is braided with just plain folks a'talkin' on the line.

@jesse i'm definitely feeling the struggle to balance things as well. oh joy, a new clutch! necessary, but an annoying extra expense nonetheless.

I hope it was a simple clutch

Just noticed with vexed surprise this week the inner edge of each front tire on my little truck is worn to hell! Something out of balance! Last set didn't last long either. I don't think I'm that rough and reckless on 'em!

just a simple $1200 but at least it was a quick fix :/

The book Exploding the Phone is worth a read. The audiobook is read by Evan Doorbell. Check your library!

My auto update: had air put in my tires this morning. The garage closer to my work than my usual place has a great vibe and is walking distance to coffee shops and everything, but I feel that isn't a good enough reason to switch garages.

melinda -- had good luck for years now with my garage, out off Forest Ave. just before Morrill's Corner. Too far away for convenience?

My hardtop driveway is dimpled on my side because my vehicle sits still on it for a few days at a time.

@b/p I use Parry Motors on Warren Ave. because they are Toyota specialists but Morrill's Corner would be closer. Cumberland Ave. Garage is where I go when I need air since all the gas station air machines are out of service these days, and it is a really pleasant space (spider plants in each window!) but I feel more comfortable taking my car to repair people who focus on my particular type of car.

As still b/p noted earlier, this is Annapurna Devi, previously married to Ravi Shankar but stopped playing publicly at an early age. These are some of the few recordings that exist apparently recorded secretly in 1950 or so I'm told. She just passed away. More info on her: en.wikipedia.org...
