Buzz Me In: Inside the Record Plant studios

The inside story of Record Plant studios – the real ‘Hotel California' – that reveals how the greatest music of the seventies was recorded and why the artists checked out but rarely left.

In the 1970s, Record Plant Studios was ground zero for the largest boom in record production in music history. With complexes in New York, Los Angeles and Sausalito, and a fleet of remote recording trucks, Record Plant was everywhere there was music. In 1976 alone, the studio produced three number-one albums: Stevie Wonder's Songs in the Key of Life, the Eagles' Hotel California and Fleetwood Mac's Rumours.

Written by two veteran music journalists, this engrossing book tells the incredible story of the evolution of Record Plant Studios tape by tape.
