RE: The Decca Sound: Secrets of the Engineers

Great article; thanks for posting.

I was particularly intrigued by the stray photo (I didn't see any text related to it) of the Decca Tree set up in the Meyerhoff Symphony Hall in Baltimore for the Baltimore Symphony's recording of Michael Torke's "Color Music".

We all have the idealized notion that Britain is full of these eccentric geniuses who go around doing things like deciphering Linear B, building Austin-Healeys and making Linn turntables. Sounds like Decca had a few of them on staff.

Happy listening,

Jim
