	Electric Lady Studios/History
		Construction started in 1969, beginning with studios A and B. The second floor was offices and the third floor was an apartment that Jimi used regularly, even though he had his own place around the corner.
		Its opening on August 26th, 1970 was a pivotal event during an era of record-company owned studios, which were often incapable of meeting rock musicians' demands, and the independents, with their inadequate equipment and lack of facilities.
		Electric Lady placed an emphasis on comfort, fostering a creative environment for a new generation of musicians.

	John Storyk: THIRTY YEARS OF STUDIO DESIGN
		Electric Lady is an amazing place that's perhaps as well known for the Minneta River as for the records that got made there.
		Electric Lady had two real bothersome neighbors-one was the theater above and the other was the subway about 100 yards away.
		People accepted studios whose equipment was much better than the [studio] environments, and that's because in 1969 the entire studio world was totally driven by equipment.

		An Electric Lady client requested 12 Pultec EQs for a "Guns and Roses" project and this resulted in his first phone call to David Manley back at VTL.
		Electric Lady bought 3 pairs of 350's and finally had the reputation of "best sounding main monitors in the country" with the Augsperger / TAD speakers.
		One of his specialties is in using his ears (and years) to fine tune parameters that relate to real world studio conditions and the broad set of professional needs.

	Quadraphonic Discography "Radio - Live at Electric Lady Studios" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The Live shows broadcast from Electric Lady studios had no commercial interruptions and used the Sansui QS Quad matrix system for encoding (including the MC's live lead-in commercial for, what else, quad audio gear at Willoughby Peerless Audio, followed by the MC's live introduction, etc.).
		In 1995, when Kinky eventually released his second career retrospective CD, 'From One Good American To Another', he included several cuts from this live 'Electric Lady' performance on it, minus any of the between-song banter (and with the year of recording mis-identified on the liner notes).
		I later had the opportunity to ask Kinky if the live 'Electric Lady' cuts on the CD had come from the tape I had given him, or if he had gotten them from some other source.

		We were blagging studio time everywhere we could -- mostly at Plaza Sound in New York, which doesn't exist anymore, and also at Bell Sound which is now Walter Seer Studios, and Electric Lady which we revisited when we recorded the new album.
		While the band were at Electric Lady, Leon still had no vocals to work with, although he had an idea of the key of each song because he'd been working with Debbie Harry to get at least that much sorted out.
		At Electric Lady I used EVs and Tannoys as main monitors and Pro Acs as nearfields, while at Chung King I used Pro Acs, the proper NS10s as nearfields and a custom-built Dynaudio Acoustics system as the big guys.

		Like his first room did 32 years ago, the 1,200 studios John Storyk and Beth Walters have designed together include at least a control room and one busy coffee machine--but that's where the similarities between Electric Lady Studios in 1969 and any one of their latest creations end.
		Storyk co-founded WSDG with studio interior designer and wife Beth Walters in 1989, and along with partners Sam Berkow and Scott Yates the four have attended countless studio openings ever since.
		I won't lie, though, Electric Lady was a heck of an experience.

		Hendrix's studio perfectionism is legendary â€” he reportedly made accomplished Traffic guitarist Dave Mason do more than twenty takes of the acoustic guitar backing on "All Along The Watchtower".
		An opening party for Electric Lady was held on 26 August, and following this, Hendrix boarded a plane for England.
		The studio tracks, "Dolly Dagger", "Earth Blues", "Room Full of Mirrors" and the melancholy improvised instrumental "Pali Gap", showed Hendrix advancing his studio technique to new levels, as well as, absorbing influences from contemporary fl soul and funk acts such as James Brown and Sly and The Family Stone.

		From the same source as "Live And Unreleased -The Radio Show", but with a few differences, this mainly studio collection has a rare fourth live CD (without all the DJ chat and interviews that are all over the other three) featuring The Experience at the LA Forum 26/04/69.
		These had flashy new covers (the original covers were on the back of the booklets) and although not achieving the greatness of the original American vinyl pressings, they really did freshen up things compared to the first generation of CD releases.
		Some interesting studio jams are included, "Lover man" (in fact two takes cleverly edited together) opens with the intro that Jimi usually used for "Killing Floor" then takes off into an awesome display of screeching rock guitar.

		By October 1969, with Mitch Mitchell having returned to England, Jimi teamed with Cox and former Electric Flag drummer Buddy Miles to form the Band Of Gypsys.
		Before this studio recording could be issued, Hendrix instead released a live version taped at the Fillmore East on January 1, 1970 as part of Band Of Gypsys.
		With the live version now available, issuing a studio recording of the same song, however different in style or arrangement, seemed regressive in Hendrix1s view and not in keeping with his plans for the projected double album First Rays Of The New Rising Sun.

		Walking through Washington Square Park (the scene of a Scott Weiland drug bust a few years back), we saw the debut of the new 9/11 memorial, which is basically two high-powered lights that shoot directly into the sky from where the WTC used to stand.
		Frankly, nothing much else happened, which brings to mind the fact that it is much more fun to play theatres than arenas, because you end up meeting a lot more locals.

		When technical problems at the new studio forced Hendrix and company to the Record Plant on May 14 and 15, the Experience came close to achieving a master take.
		Intent on maximizing the superior sound of his new facility, Hendrix sat aside his earlier effort and called for new takes on June 24, and again on the 25th before his satifaction was complete.

		We got to work at a GREAT studio with Bruce Bucchhalter, who engineered with Iron Maiden, The Cars, Hall and Oates, etc..., so it was at least SOME what of a good experience, if not just a GREAT deal of experience with what can go wrong in the music business.
		Bruce said he thought it was the best album he EVER worked on and was bringing record guys into Electric Lady to play the rough mixes for them right at the studio.
		Bruce called me one day because the studio wouldn't release the tapes to him so he could play them for a guy coming in that day from MCA because they supposedly weren't paid for, but we had paid the recording amount in full to the producer before we began recording.

		There were ghosts at New York’s Electric Lady Studios, but they were benevolent spirits, and they were happy.
		Under the direction of legendary studio wizard—and original Hendrix engineer—Eddie Kramer, the multitrack reels of several Hendrix hits were hauled out of deep storage and rethreaded across old-school tape decks to allow a team of DigiTech engineers to model the exact guitar tones that Jimi created to animate his songs.
		Perhaps the only thing cooler was sitting in Electric Lady’s control room hearing a joyful Hendrix making his classic tracks—along with all the alternate takes, room sound, extended jams, and studio jabber.
