No, not even close to his talent.So you are Jean Michel Jarre?
I think historical studio's are also interesting to see, This is the infamous Basing Street studio from Island records (1969-1982) in 1975. This studio was used by Bob Marley, Dire Straits, Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, Roxy Music, Fairport Convetion, ... during that time. In 1982 the studio was sold.
Yes, I agree I'm trying to find some good / useful Pics of the Studios I worked inI think historical studio's are also interesting to see, This is the infamous Basing Street studio from Island records (1969-1982) in 1975
I don't agree actually, the "crude stuff" recorded the jamaican way by Lee Perry is still better than the cleaned up versions from Island, prepared to be sold to the mainstream. But it's good they did not fuck it up like they did with so many other reggae songs "preparing for the mainstream". It still got the right vibe, that is the most important.what they did with Marley's stuff is incredible. They took the crude stuff and enhanced it to oblivion to make it perfect, and it still sounds like coming straight from Kingston.
production per excellence

Not really, the jamaican music is very produced to a certain sound. The raw tracks are sometimes also out there and sound very different than the end result after Lee Perry was done with it. Most later productions in the 1970's were also recorded by Lee Perry, but not at his own "Black Ark" studio, but at Randy's 17 studio and later at the Federal Studio (that Bob Marley bought and renamed Tuff Gong), but mixed by Island in their studio's (with sometimes overdubs) for the UK market. Lee Perry made always also jamaican mixes for the soundsystems. Some of those are also rereleased on cd ao digital formats recently. Bob always worked with Lee Perry, from his first release in 1963 at Studio One (where Lee Perry worked as producer in the 1950's and 1960's) to his death.I see where the charm is. They basically threw them in the studio hit play and let them do their thing, stopped play, and called it a day lol. very puristic indeed
Can we just have a thread on pictures of recording studios of the world without it spinning into the negative? Lets try...
