1981 - playing a wedding

Early (early '80's) version of home studio.
I owned the room. My friend Joe Nickel owned the gear. As I remember it we used a Teac 4-track reel-to-reel with a Teac mixer and Sennheiser mics. We made tape loops by slicing and splicing tapes together with razor blades and stringing them around mic stands. Good times.

My good friend Jack Mulligan tracking keyboards

Another close friend, Brian Scott (drums, percussion, vocals, guitar, piano) and myself clowning around. This is the kind of fun you can have when you're not paying for studio time!
