"I first met Lou Beatty somewhere between 1965 and 1966, possibly through legendary jazz pianist, Teddy Harris Sr.
He had this new place on 14th street, just a block away from my  upstairs flat which was sitting close by  at 6063 15th .
I just went around and introduced myself. That was my style, I had confidence man and felt that my talent and experience could get me in anywhere. I just needed the chance to show what I could do.
Beatty's investment was a large 4 family building at number 6070-6076 14th Street. He soon converted it into a studio, an office and several rehearsal rooms. Most rooms upstairs were furnished with a piano while downstairs was converted into a recording studio and control room.
Sadly, the studio was a horrible job because it was in the front room where large windows were a prominent feature. To make matters worse we were on ground level, with traffic laden 14th Street only a few feet away!
Lou soon found an answer to that however and sent me to a studio in Chicago which had equipment, special EQ, capable of removing car sounds from recordings! I think I had to do that to most of Beatty’s catalogue.
I would also do the mixing there.”
