Hey Guys. Glad you enjoyed Brad’s article. For sure I’ll be posting more stories/memories from back in the day during the coming weeks/months. Thanks especially to Brad for his support with this. I’m running about a bit today (trying to buy a new car!) but when I get home later, I’ll take a proper look at the comments and crosspost the article on my Stack. Thanks again.

This is why we read Substack. To read first hand experiences by real people about real people. I almost lost my toes with all the name drops here. Great collab guys !

This has been fascinating to read. As a London resident, as a sound enthusiast, and as a music lover. Thank you, Nic, for sharing such a monumental story, and thank you, Brad, for putting it all together so masterfully (as always). I usually walk past many of the places mentioned in the piece, but never been inside any of these legendary studios. This post made me feel like I was right there!

Fascinating stuff, Nic! I love that BBC/ITV 'Classic Albums' documentary series where they talk to both musicians and Producers such as Eddie Kramer about how the album was recorded, produced, mixed, etc. So, I am looking forward to reading more of Nic's tales!

Oh, and by the way...AIR Studios is gorgeous!

Always enjoy a 'behind the scenes' - especially with vintage photos of cool equipment!
