Juvenile detention facilities have such great reverb. That is why the Jackson 5 recorded in one. It was entirely unrelated to the incarceration of members.

Of course, country can be recorded in a field, a barn, a cheap bar, or Indianapolis.
I'm pretty sure the first two are too full of folk acts for them to fit. The fokies are all in real ale bars, though. No self-respecting folkie even knows where Indianapolis is.
Sure we do, it's the twin city of Sioux City, both are suburbs of Yellowknife. Yellowknife being the air terminus for traveling to Ayers Rock in the outback of New Zealand and not too terribly far from Delhi, the capital of Scotland. I know this because of the tour I took of the Stradivarius factory that is located and still operating in Copenhagen, France. That factory is where Leo Fender (blessed be unto him) had his apprenticeship while learning to build his world famous instruments, the autoharp and electric cymbals.
I know where the Hudson River valley is too.

If, when tuning, you find you're out a couple of cents, for the show to go on, you're gonna need change for a dollar. Be sure you always have some loose change on you.
Yes, that's where he got the name Copa Cabana from for the beach where he first Landed; he named the city itself after a Duran Duran song.
The Mini Coopers are an all dwarf Alice Cooper tribute band.Alice Cooper named his band and later himself after the successful British car the Mini Cooper.
True. The Mini Cooper was named for the famous blues musician, Al Kooper. Kooper had a falling out with the automaker when it announced its slogan: "You too can have a Mini Kooper, just like Al." Al didn't like that and severed all ties and sued to have his name removed. The name was changed to Mini Cooper.Alice Cooper named his band and later himself after the successful British car the Mini Cooper.
Yes..everyone..seize the opportunity to claw your way to the bottom..
When you've sunk as low as you can go--you have arrived.
This is where the great Blues songs are written and you'll probably find one or two Paul Anka
cd's laying around as well.

Bill Clinton originally wanted to be a bass player, but when he, being somewhat dyslexic, saw the word saxophone, he immediately ordered one.
Duran Duran got it's name from their first manager. Who happened to be one of those people that repeats everything in a sentence twice for emphasis.
A typical conversation with their manager would go like this;-
"How's it going?"
"Not bad at all. Not bad."
" Beautiful day, huh?"
" Beautiful day. Beautiful."
"What are you going to call that new band you've got?"
"Duran. Duran."
..and he had a brother - Bond, James Bond.
Truth be told, that's how Duran Duran got hooked up to write the "View to a Kill" James Bond Theme song.
