Before we go any further

I'd like to show you all a game I made up

This game is called sounds of the studio

And it can be played with any record including this one

You can play it uh with

You can even play it with your favorite record

You may be surprised

Now if you have a pair of headphones

You better get 'em out and get 'em cranked up

'Cause they're really gonna help you on this one

Now I'm sure you all recognize this

This is called hiss

It comes on records that were mastered

Lousy or mono reprocessed for stereo

Or any number of things

This of course is hum

Ps popping

This is the sound of bad editing

And here's what happens when the

Machine gains control and mangles your tape

Punch

Outs

Now all you have to do is find

These sounds on the record

And whoever finds the most wins of course

But don't
