Pics from the 901






Here are some pics from Sun Records in Memphis back in June. That small room with the drum kit is where we recorded, and where all those seminal rock n' roll hits were first put to tape. It's largely unchanged since the 1950s. Sun (http://www.sunstudio.com/) still does most of their recording live off the floor, and the warmth and natural energy of this bare-bones approach shines through in their final product, which you can check out here:

The other two pics are slightly less historical. I'm overdubbing my guitar solos, then forgetting about the bad notes I hit with the quintessential Beale Street beverage.
