Commencement

We went into Jerry Milam’s Golden Voice Studios in South Pekin, Illinois on a Saturday morning December 14, 1968 to record our first album. It was just the two of us, along with friend Chris White, who we recruited to play bass. This was the first song we recorded. Jerry used the huge plate reverb that he had built himself to create the unique sonic space where this song lives. It is a magical take.
