Neil Young recorded his entire new album in Jack White's vinyl recording booth
Neil Young is set to release a new album of covers shortly, with Jack White featuring on the LP. Now, it’s been revealed that Young and White actually recorded the full-length using Third Man Records’ Voice-o-Graph vinyl recording booth.
Young recently told SPIN that the album, entitled A Letter Home, “is going to be very confusing to people because it is retro-tech”, continuing: “Retro-tech means recorded in a 1940s recording booth. A phone booth. It’s all acoustic with a harmonica inside a closed space, with one mic to vinyl.”
“It’s a funky old machine, it sounds like Jimmy Rogers or something,” he added.
Meanwhile, Young is also set to launch his new high-defintion music player Pono later this year.
