      There was a rehearsal place up the road at Woodside as we called it, I think it was part of Rockfield Farm There was a desk in there and I'm sure someone said about it being the one used on the record ( Type of desk alludes me for a moment). It wasn't in working order at the time, I'll ask a bit more about it as I know someone who will know more about it. I was in there rehearsing with my band Novocaine at the time. I did twiddle with it though as I remember being in awe even though it wasn't working. I'm sure the tech Otto was working on something around there at the time maybe it was that.

      ⭐Gold Star Studios where the Wrecking Crew and Phil Spector created the "Wall of Sound." The studio was destroyed by a fire in 1984 and now a mini-mall is constructed on the site. Today people purchase a Philly cheesesteak sandwich and don't realize they're eating on hallowed music history ground.. WHAT A SHAME!!! ⭐However, Rockfield Studios is definitely in my top 10 studios... thanks for another AWESOME video Warren! I'm glad Rockfield Studios is still around... you're the BEST!!! 🎼🎶🎵🎶🎹 🎸

    Strange to see they've got a spinet series Hammond organ knocking about, whilst most studios have a B3 or whatever at their disposal. I actually kinda like it. The spinet series do sound a bit different to the famous B3 though and some players even prefer the sound of the spinet Hammonds. I like both. Richard Wright used a spinet series for years. Dark Side Of The Moon was the first album he strayed away from them and recorded with a RT (I think?) series Hamnmond organ. He never went back to the spinet series, which's a bit of a shame, I think. Just listen to Echoes live at Pompeii. What an organ sound!! Okay, it's got less bollocks, but it might've more personality. Don't know how else to describe it. Greetings from Wilmer. :)

    • @Producelikeapro
      @Producelikeapro  2 місяці тому +2

      It’s a great choice! It’s not unusual for studios to use them or the M3 for instance. After all the common misconception is that it is a B3 with a Leslie on Green Onions when of course it was an M3 without a Leslie and just using the internal speaker.

    Look at this ua-cam.com/video/KMU4biOsJ-w/v-deo.htmlsi=Z_GP_EkXvLP_9Ey9. That is the „Wurst“ mic used as the only mic to capture the drums back in 1971 and I‘m sure, this wasn‘t the only time, they used it like this. So that mic is by no means the invention of Moses Schneider or anyone else, who came up later.
