Recording '50s Style

Inspired by Norman Petty and Sam Phillips, studio owner Dean Amos has lovingly built a perfect recreation of a 1950s recording environment — right down to the dimensions of the pegboard! We eavesdrop on a session at Sugar Ray’s Vintage Recording Studio to find out why it’s still valid to record an entire band to tape, with one microphone. We also talk to engineer Lincoln Grounds and the band about the challenges they faced when recording this way. What we discovered may surprise you...
