Old Mics at Abbey Road.

Here are some photos of old mics that we used last week at Abbey Road. Some go back to 1931. The old ribbon is always seen on Ringo Starr’s drums and that’s what we used it on. The EMI 47 and the other one are the ones that were used a lot on Beatles vocal sessions. The orchestral set up shows the size of Abbey Road 2 well. It is pretty much the same room as it always was. TIf you look hard enough in one of the photos you can find the cellist Ophelie Gaillard who we were recording for our new joint venture company in France. Studio 1 can be seen on my Myspace photo section and is much bigger.
Best to all, CL
