The Art of the Studio

On the radio show, Paul Kotheimer and I had a free-fall discussion of recording techniques. We gave numerous examples, dissecting and reconstructing recordings by The Beatles, XTC, and Paul Kotheimer, and touching on the Beach Boys, Buddy Holly, Les Paul, and the Herring Boys.

Here's our bibliography from the show:

Cunningham, Mark > Good Vibrations: A History of Record Production

Lewisohn, Mark > The Beatles: Recording Sessions

MacDonald, Ian > Revolution in the Head: The Beatles' Records and the Sixties

Massey, Howard > "Revolutionary Recording" (interview with Geoff Emerick, originally published in EQ magazine, excerpted from Massey's book Conversations with Record Producers)

XTC & Neville Farmer > XTC: Song Stories

Scribbling the map of the show on the fly.
