Olivia recording Come On Over - Studio Sound

top

From Mono to Multitrack

The EmiNeve console, Olivia Newton-John and John Farrar in Control Room Three.

Tony Clark, who balances all Cliff Richard’s and the Shadows records, works a lot with producer John Farrar, with in particular Olivia Newton-John, whose recordings made at Abbey Road met with amazing success in the States. Peter Vince, 100, fills the dual role of engineer/producer with the Spinners, and John Leckie with Bebop De Luxe.

The Soft Machine group followed Olivia Newton-John into Studio Three during my visit but virtually only the name is the same as the original “underground” group.
