Talk:Electric Lady Studios

Expand This

There has got to be so much more info on this. There are so many acts that have recorded there and it has changed over time. This needs to be expanded.

Radiohead

I'm removing the band because I've never heard that the band recorded an album there (the following info is based on the album articles and the liner notes of my CDs):

• Pablo Honey was recorded at 2 studios in Oxford, namely Chipping Norton and Coutyard Studios
• The Bends was recorded at the RAK, The Manor, and Abbey Road Studios
• OK Computer: see OK Computer#Recording history
• Kid A/Amnesiac: see Kid A#Recording and production
• Hail to the Thief, recorded at Ocean Way, California, and at the band's studio in Oxford
• The seventh studio album is currently being recorded in Oxford

OK so far

Sure, but who recorded there? Can we get some names? Woodshed (talk) 13:59, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Popular culture

ELS is an important location (by name, and probably as a filming location) in the movie Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008).

Perhaps someone better than I at Wiki-markup could add this

List of artists

Is the list of artists useful? WP:NOTDIRECTORY includes:

Wikipedia articles are not: ... 7. Simple listings without context information. Examples include, but are not limited to: listings of business alliances, clients, competitors, employees (except CEOs, supervisory directors and similar top functionaries), equipment, estates, offices, store locations, products and services, sponsors, subdivisions and tourist attractions. Information about relevant single entries with encyclopedic information should be added as sourced prose. Lists of creative works in a wider context are permitted. [emphasis added]

Category:Albums recorded at Electric Lady Studios is already linked under "See also", which is arguably more informative. The most noteworthy clients and albums may be better included as prose in the appropriate time period section where they might have more context. —Ojorojo (talk) 13:48, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
