The Famous Studio B of Nashville, TN

Our tour guide...
Our first morning in Nashville took us to the famous Studio B where almost every famous singer has recorded their music...Eddy Arnold, Dolly Parton, Porter Wagner, the Everly Brothers, Jim Reeves, Elvis (most of all of his songs were recorded here!!), and recent artists like Martina McBride, Willie Nelson, Amy Grant and Carrie Underwood!! This was a really fantastic tour!! If you ever find yourself in Nashville, you MUST, MUST, MUST do this tour!!! By the time we got to sit in the recording studio room, listen to the songs that were recorded there...I was crying just it bit...it was overwhelmingly emotional for me, I guess. It brought back wonderful memories of my childhood, listening with my mama and daddy to some of the best music EVER!! Thanks Mom and Dad for teaching me to enjoy and appreciate all kinds of music...especially ELVIS!!

 

Who can name these famous country artists of old??
 

Here is a clue on these boys..."Cathy's Clown" was recorded in this studio!!
 

His famous songs..."He'll Have to Go" and "Welcome to My World"
 

And of course Elvis...he recorded over 250 songs in this very room!!
The actual sign that was light during recording sessions!

Believe it or not...Elvis stood in this corner of the room to sing while he was recording....Many artist chose to stand here due to the acoustics of the room!
