A volume in the line from the late John Culshaw's legendary
Decca-related memoirs, this is an engaging stringing-together of
tales from Peter Andry's distinguished decades as a producer....No
one can fail to enjoy this.

There are wonderful stories, and you will get to know what went on
behind the scenes when great recordings were being made.
*American Record Guide, May/June 2009*
Inside the recording studio is remarkably honest.... Highly
recommend this title for any library which has a large collection
of recordings.
