John Fry and Adam Hill mix Big Star at Ardent Studios in Memphis, TN - Video
PUBLISHED:  Jun 18, 2009
DESCRIPTION:
In an event that may or may not have caused the hurricane force winds that blew through Memphis last week, Ardent Music owner and founder John Fry stepped behind the console for the first time since, according to the man himself, the 1980s. Fry was in studio A mixing some tracks for the upcoming Big Star Box Set, entitled Keep an Eye on the Sky. Ardents Adam Hill (our resident Big Star historian) assisted on the mixes with a giant grin on his face. The tracks they worked on were:

1. An 8 track version of Try Again from #1 Record

2. An alternate take of India Song from #1 Record, with some additional overdubs that never appeared on the original

3. A rough, early instrumental version of O My Soul from Radio City

4. A cover of the Kinks Til the End of the Day

Keep an Eye on the Sky is slated for release on September 15 of this year.
