The Vinyl Dialogues IV From Studio to Stylus by Mike Morsch Within the walls of a recording studio, there exists the stories that make up the foundation to the soundtracks of our lives. It’s what happens in those studios that results in what we hear on our turntables. When Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys decided to go surfing instead of putting his voice on the song “Sail On, Sailor” who did his brother Carl Wilson turn to for the lead vocals? When the background vocalists struggled with a song for Carly Simon’s “No Secrets” album, what big-name star stepped in to lend his voice? When perfectionist Karen Carpenter had trouble getting the vocals right for a song on her solo album, what did she do solve the problem? Who was in the control booth with producer Phil Ramone when the Starland Vocal Band recorded its version of Paul Simon’s “American Tune?” Those stories and more are all here, as told by the artists themselves, who made some memorable - and some not so memorable - albums of the 1960s and 1970s. |
