Thanks....it was a one off experience and it was majic :D

I have a job remembering all that was said in that talk but a few things come to mind.

Revolution was all recorded in that control room with exception of drums, some sort of pre amps were made at AR and the guitars were DI'd into the desk which is what gave that distortion.

Another song was recorded in a small store room to the right of the control room, all instruments went in there and played live, I can't remember the song but when they played it back it was self explanatory.

Paul recorded a kick drum for another song in the small stairwell through the double doors at the back of the studio which caused the neighbors to complain due to the noise! By the way, through those doors and on the right is one of the echo chamber rooms, as it was with large drain pipes standing on end and tiled walls.

The chairs we sat on and can be seen in the pictures are the originals, bought in because they were none squeak (1960's)
