I know Iâve been posting a lot of studio pics lately, but itâs becauseâŚwell, I love it. Many of the worldâs great analog studios are threatened by the march of time, but here in Memphis we are lucky to have some of the most significant recoding spaces in the world still in operation and making records every day. @samphillipsrecording is the studio Sam opened in 1960 after he sold Sun. They cut âWooly Bullyâ by Sam the Sham there. The Yardbirds cut their version of âTrain Kept A-Rolinââ at Phillips. Itâs where John Prine made his âPink Cadillacâ album, with Knox, Jerry, and Sam producing. And I was fortunate to get to make a record of my own there a decade ago with the late Roland Janes, a special experience I will always treasure. So Iâm especially honored to be playing some guitar on the sessions for the upcoming Jerry Phillips original project, and I canât wait for everyone to hear the killer rock and roll tunes heâs been writing. Theyâve made a lot of exciting changes at Phillips recently, and Iâm really happy it worked out for @electraphonic to be behind the desk - which is now the Spectra Sonic console that was originally at Stax Studio B, which can be heard on Isaac Hayesâ âBlack Mosesâ album, to name just one. It is newly-refurbished and sounds fabulous. And thereâs nothing like tracking live with reverb in your headphones from an actual echo chamber down the hall. Like the song says, âainât nothing like the real thing baby.â Itâs also especially cool to get to work with the homies on all this, @dannybanksdrummer and the multi-talented @thewilsonmc, who brought along his camera last week for our session with @commonwealther, and got these nice shots. But more on that in a later postâŚstay tuned⌠#memphis #memphismusic #memphisstudios #recordingstudios #studios #analogrecording #analogstudios #spectrasonic #stax #staxrecords #samphillips #samphillipsrecording #sunrecords #samthesham #theyardbirds #yardbirds #johnprine #jerryphillips #isaachayes #blackmoses #rolandjanes #thescottmiller (at Sam Phillips Recording) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cltsb6VARge/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

If you donât know, portrait mode on the iPhone camera is awesome for close ups of gear. I just snapped these as we were packing up after another great day at @samphillipsrecording. And I used the wide angle lens with the phone vertical for the room shot, you can really appreciated the ceiling design. Love this place!

Great day today at one of my favorite musical spaces on earth, @samphillipsrecording, doing the session man thang with @dannybanksdrummer and @thewilsonmc. We were there to back up the man himself, Jerry Phillips, on the maiden voyage of their ânewâ console, which was originally at Stax Studio B and is now refurbished and in its new home. It sounds as good as it looks. Thank you, Jerry, @halleydega, and @electraphonic for having me be a part of this! I love the songs! đśđđâĄď¸ (at Sam Phillips Recording) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjE2IEzggPj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
