...and other cool recording trivia. All because of a small studio in the middle of the Caribbean. Pretty amazing all the people that recorded there in a short span of time.

Great read. Thanks for posting. I need to watch that documentary.

And if you are into that stuff, I highly recommend watching Muscle Shoals

I recently read George Martin's book All You Need Is Ears (which is fantastic). He talks some about that studio in it. Also about the proposed floating studio. I can't believe that almost happened. He was dead serious about it.

That song is so good but they really hate on Prince.

I still love it.
