Stumbled across these pics while googling for spring reverbs. Amazing pics oozing of nostalgia. From the homepage of engineer Jim Reeves. Haven't heard of him before. Is he well known in the business? www.reevesaudio.com/vintagesessions.html

Great site. Blue Oyster Cult's "Tyranny And Mutation" was recorded in late '72 at 52nd St. With Tim Geelan engineering and mixing, and "Secret Treaties" was done a year later at "the church" at 30th street. Great times. For Secret Treaties, we set up like it was a live show facing the control room and CBS had these huge gobos that we put around the backline to make the room acoustically smaller. Lots of U87's on that record. The Church was so big a room, we rarely went into the control room. We hung out in the big room.
When we recorded at The Record Plant, union work rules were still in effect requiring a Columbia engineer to be on premises, so Lou Schlossberg was in attendance (and getting paid by us) hanging out in the hallway studying for a college degree while Shelly Yakus actually engineered.

Great pics there. Those Universal Audio Limiters look great. Those 175B's?
