The Aborted January ’77 Recording Session-Brent Maher Interview - a podcast by hgkx83

Creative Workshop is an historic recording studio founded in 1970 by songwriter and producer Buzz Cason.

It was the very first recording studio established in Nashville’s Berry Hill district and was one of the first independently owned studios built in all of Nashville.

Berry Hill is now home to nearly 40 recording studios.

   The Studio was originally built as a place for Cason to develop and produce new artists. He and his engineer Travis Turk wasted no time doing this.  Before the paint could even dry on the walls they were in the studio tracking a young songwriter from Mobile named Jimmy Buffett.  

When Travis left, Brent Maher became the new chief engineer and oversaw the building of a brand new, state-of-the-art control room and renovation to the live tracking room in 1976. 

Shortly after,in 1977,Elvis Presley was booked in to Creative for a week long

Recording session, beginning Thursday January 20th.

However,things didn’t quite go to plan.

I’m delighted to say Brent joins me on the show today to share his memories of that time with us
