"ABBEY ROAD STUDIO 2 VISIT"

Postby Phil.c » 14 Oct 2012, 09:49

Hi All

I posted this on the other forums earlier this year, I though i'd give the guys here a chance to see it:-




I visited Abbey Road studio 2 yesterday to commererate it's 80th year.
Kevin Ryan and Brian Kehew the writers of "Recording the Beatles" did a talk.
I thought forum members would be interested, here's some pics, which include the gear that the Beatles and many other famous people used.
Winifred Atwell/Russ Conways piano etc.
If anyone has any question please feel free to ask.

Hi Phil, I was in studio 2 May 1967 (N'Betweens aka SLADE) and The Beatles where in studio 1 mixing Sgt Peppers with George Martin (and no groupies outside !!) it was very late.I always remember the stairs upto the control room

Good times Kieth and good memories ;) The closest I came to the Beatles is when I played the Cavern in 66 but they had gone to London before then.

It's nice to have done these things when everything was really happening!

Hi Phil , I forgot to add 3 of their cars where parked next to our tranny in front carpark, Silver cloud 3 LWB, Ferrari 400 and a Mini Radford Deville, I phoned Dave Hill last night to ask him what we were recording (he's forgotten !!), wonderful memories as you say.
