From the Archives: Deer Tick recording at Ardent Studios in Memphis, TN. I happened to have brought a pack of the now extinct #fujifb3000b proofing film and shot through the it while the guys worked. I always enjoyed these fujiroids together and definitely miss that film! Today I started working on a new portfolio book, and I believe I’ll have this photograph in it 😉

Thanks to @discograffitipod for bringing this piece of the @bigstarband story to my attention. I'm fairly forgiving when it comes to solo #AlexChilton, but this is much more like it 👍😀 #ardentstudios #memphis @chrisbellbigstar #chrisbell https://www.instagram.com/p/ChAl1piLTGk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[Long Beach, California] Today 8/16/#2018 is the 25th anniversary of the release of one of the best records ever made that few people know anything about. #1993. Who are they? ALL. Basically the newest lineup of the Descendents without Milo on vocals. With one of rock and country's finest vocalists @chadprice_ ..., @stephenegerton on guitar, Karl Alvarez on bass, and legendary Bill Stevenson (also was in Black Flag) @hopesticker on drums, they recorded this melodic monster in Memphis at Ardent (@ardentstudios) where the legendary power pop band Big Star recorded some 20 years earlier. Although classified as #punk, it was really just a straight ahead rock album with 50s/60s/80s pop influences. Some metal, some old school punk. I cannot say enough about this record. I still want to want to thank my long time friend @travisbarker (via @randracula) for showing me this record. We both agreed that there was nothing like it, and yet it was familiar at the same time. As much as I love the Descendents, there was something different, with Chad's raspy vocals that makes this record my absolute favorite. Thanks guys. #goforall . . . . . #all #descendents #longbeach #socal #california #thisisamerica #ardent #ardentstudios #punkrock #punkrawk #allular #melodicpunk #melodic #cruzrecords #punkers #filmage #anniversary #25thanniversary #vsco #instavsco . . .

One of my earliest musical memories as a kid was seeing this record in my godparents collection. I didn't listen to it but I sure did come across an Electric Light Orchestra 8 track in the next room that made me curious enough to pop it into the player. I thoroughly enjoyed it. #zztop #vinyl #ardentstudios

Memphis is our spiritual home away from home. We fell in love when we recorded at @ardentstudios, met so many great musicians and people we now call friends. Stoked to be back in the #901! #memphismusic #ardentstudios #bigstar #rockandroll #livemusic

Chris Bell - I am the Cosmos (2017 reissue). I didn’t even know this was reissued recently. His whole story is just so sad 😞 #chrisbell #iamthecosmos #bigstar #ardentstudios #alexchilton #powerpop #reissue

I'm still reeling from Sunday's performance at Ardent Studios.  Thanks to Music Export Memphis & Monkey Mind Productions for putting together an inspiring & unforgettable weekend of music.  Can't wait for Liverpool!

after much faffing & browsing & indecision, I've finally found my sixth & final subject for recording miniatures. Ardent Studios used to be on National St, Memphis. here's the building now & it couldn't be a more perfect vision of art-in-waiting. Isaac Hayes' Hot Buttered Soul was recorded there in 1969. #art #artistsoninstagram #artistsontumblr #artist #drawing #pen #penonpaper #penandink #recording #recordingstudio #architecture #soundengineering #ardentstudios #hotbutteredsoul #isaachayes #bigstar #memphis #ledzeppelin #jamestaylor #samanddave https://www.instagram.com/p/CMztdeuLNEk/?igshid=13miz9x43j7a7
