Bob Segar wrote a lot of his songs on this piano. Paul Simon recorded the piano for Kodachrome. This isn't the studio FAME, where Aretha Franklin and other Motown artists used. They had a back up band at this place. The Swampers. Paul Simon called and said he wanted that black back up band. They're a bunch of white boys that literally grew up in cabins with dirt floors. It's up close to Tennessee. Tennessee River is very sacred to the Native Americans and translates to something like "singing water" and then these studios became very famous MANY Years later. Linda Rondstat, and a ton more artists I can't remember atm.
The Rolling Stones. Keith Richards wrote Wild Horses in the bathroom. It had a hidden room for drinking because it used to be a dry county. Lol. Lots of history. He was in heaven 🎹🎧
