One thing I've noticed about these vlog style videos is Leland lights up any room he walks in. People smile when they see him and that speaks to how good of a man he truly is.
Only Leland could infiltrate this studio and not get arrested! Another amazing post from everyone's favorite bassist and personality...
Thanks for the walkabout Leland👍
Wow😮 it’s like a maze
nice to see boards with analog meters!
I love how Lee balances kidding around while at the same time being absolutely kind and respectful to his peers. This guy really has it figured out on that. Has to be one of the nicest people in the industry!
You got that right! Nothing like being in a studio with a bunch of people, and there's that one premadonna, or jerk who ruins it for everyone. Music is all bout emotion and you want to be in a fitting emotional state , and since I'm sure Lee isn't tracking some Nazi Hard core shit, he's right to help set a more suitable atmosphere. Working with him must be great. I'd give him the middle finger as often as he wants! (
He certainly knows how to show us around while not lingering where people are working, as I'm sure he doesn't want people lurking while he's laying down a track. Cruise in, state why you're there and get out. If only every radio station manager I've ever worked for had learned that lesson.
So here we go again! Another reason why Lee's channel is the BEST! Not only do we get to hear many diverse artists that Lee has had the privilege of working with, we get to see behind the scenes of some of the place where this wonderful music was created and meet some of the people involved. I NEVER get to see this stuff and THANK YOU LEE for this experience!!!!
I totally agree
Great experience indeed. Thank you Lee.
😀💖Yay! You got thru the rush hour! Surprise Sunset Sound! 🤣 Oh no! Hee hehehehehe! 😎 Manhattan Transfer, as well!
This is so cool,all the famous music recorded there.
COOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have seen this location in credits so many times and now we have a visual reference!
Nice tour🎶
Have a good day👍
Leland great Caddy Shack reference with the candy!!
A great walk through video. Always a nice visit.

Awesome ! Thanks for sharing that
Hi Dean✋
Thank you for the tour, it is very kind and generous of you and the studio to share. ✌️
Wow,all the famous music recorded here,mind blowing.
Wow! I really enjoyed that thank you so much!
I spent my whole professional life in the recording studio (lots of them) but I'm retired now at 70. What a treat Lee. Thanks!!
man oh man what charmed life you live!!
I love it when Lee lifts the velvet rope and lets us follow him into the tessitura of his world. Where the walls have become richly burnished with coloratura of legendary collaborations of rhythm, melody and roundelay.
A place w alot of history
Music is a gift from above. Leland Sklar is music.
THIS WAS ONE OF THE VERY BEST VIDEOS EVER!!!! THANK YOU!!!
wow!!!!!! Dean Parks, an absolute legend
I love it when we go on an excursion with Leland.
Love it!! I so enjoy these studio tours. Thank you, thank you 🖕❤
Thank you for sharing your workplace. Always appreciate the behind the scenes. Two thumbs-up..!!!
Lee, I just loved this tour of the Sunset Sound Studio. It was fun to see what it looks like behind the scenes when making music. Thanks for taking the time to give us the tour. You are awesome!!
Yes Iruka’s album BIG CHALLENGE has the mural with you and the band.👍🏼
This is so freaking awesome. Thanks so much Lee, I’ve been watching your channel for well over a year just happening coming into my feed and for whatever reason Sunset Sound has been dribbling in. Thanks so much for taking the time to make this great video, and being able to finally Have a visual along with all the other footage that has been made available up until now. The owner and his dad made a point of not taking a lot of photographs during all those years of recording and now you’ve given us to insight to some of the visual things talked about, for example, the infamous basketball court were prince, spent so much time in between sessions, and just a general sense for the orderliness and professionalism of the studio studios along with the camaraderie it isn’t by accident that sunset sound is still an existence today because of the positivity that exist there. No wonder so many great artists chose to work at Sunset Sound over the years.
I like these a lot, I was inold Atlantic records in NY.
Thank you for the glimpse into this magical place!
Great to see where the magic happens.
Cool.. Thanks for the tour..always great to get a peek at where the magic is made..have fun ..but stay safe🖕
Crossing Dean Parks's path was awesome. The man's a studio legend. As is Leland himself.
Putting the Baby Ruth in the bathroom…! LOL!
Looks like Dean Parks dodged a prank…temporarily…. ;-)
I've passed thousands of times by Sunset Sound and never been inside. I've been to many other famous studios here in Hollywood but this one not yet. One day. Thanks Leland for the tour!
I love seeing a million dollars worth of gear and then the taped up tissue on the NS10s. Always cracks me up.
I've driven by Sunset Sound a bunch of times. Had no idea it was that BIG.
My Uncle worked at the great A&M RECORDS HOLLYWOOD from 1969-1999,and my life/stories are there.
This is a treat and just a fantastic walk-a-long @SunsetSound with the Top Bassist Eva, the brilliant Lee Sklar! Thank you ,Sir.
Who was your Uncle and what work did he do there?
Lee did walk through of A & M a while back....
Thanks for sharing this, Lee.
Love it!
That is so strange! I just saw Rodrigo at the Jeff Porcaro tribute last night at the Spud and when you got into the recording room - there’s Daniel Lima who sang on Africa & Hold the Line!
Small world. (Even having just flown in from Brazil the day before!)
Have a great session!
Thanks Cleveland that was very cool I recognized several those mixers. Especially the one that used for one of the scenes in entourage I think was filmed in front of that mixer
Thank you for a great tour once again, Lee!
It is so good of you to show is around, Lee. Thanks!
Excellent Leland! Hey, just picked up a Dingwall NG 2....It's on it's way from Denmark as we speak. Thanks for introducing me to them and Thank you for the interesting Video!
Enjoy that beautiful instrument!
Love it! Thanks -
I love these walkthroughs. 🤗
I just have a blast when you take us on these tours. Love when I see my friends Dean Parks & Jim Cox. Please tell them howdy. Thanks Lee
"It's just another Manic Monday (whoa-whoa), I wish it was Sunday (whoa-whoa), 'cause that's my fun day..." - Sunset Sound, Prince (1984). Thanks Lee!
Thanks for the tour, Lee!
Enjoy the day and be good to you 💛
Very cool, thanks!
I like when you do these walk throughs..Most of us have never seen the inside of a studio..Some cool shit..
Love these behind the scenes videos. Thanks Lee! 👍 ❤ 😎
I used to be able to walk to this studio from my place on Formosa and played theremin on a session in Studio 2 once. I think every Doors album was recorded at Sunset Sound.
Very cool video! I was watching and thinking about all the cool people and albums that have been recorded here. Just imagine, all those records over the past decades. I cant get my head round it.
OMG if those walls could talk ! thanks for the tour of one of your iconic offices Lee. So much history right there . Looks like the structure itself is stuck in the 70s with up to date electronics of course. Very cool 👍
Very cool. Thank you for the tour!
Thank you so much. What a privilege to see such an amazing workplace. How would it be just to be a visitor for a day? Wow. I kinda wish I did a walkthrough vid of my workplace of many years. If you like where you work, like I did, and you like your coworkers I recommend it. I've retired now so too late for me.
Thanks Lee for sharing your life! Must be like playing pinball on 180 volts!
Wow, that place is such a time warp. I'll bet they've had that same candy machine since the 70s. It's a real contrast to a place like EastWest/Western/Ocean Way, where they did a fancy designer makeover of the common areas, while keeping the main rooms unchanged acoustically.
Great to show us around ‘the office’, Lee. It’s a revelation to many. Warmest thanks.🙏🌞🌻🇬🇧☯️🙏
Very cool, Lee. That place has sooo much history. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for this. Quick but efficient. Great to see well designed, well laid out (notice all the lounges are completely private and completely separated from the control & live rooms), real deal old school studios with nice ambient live rooms and legit classic vintage and modern gear....where the job can truly be done right.
*Leland Sklar* *THANK YOU* *I Thought i mentioned you? Because you all are a big bunch of GODS that paved the way for music in the day*So Its intense To hav more than one of you on my screen* *HOW MUCH GREATNESS CAN IT HOLD*Lol. *CATER*
great to see Dean Parks doing well. first heard him via Koinonia. a gospel jazz band in the early 1980s. dear lee i hope the message of the 2nd chapter of acts, whom you admire so much, and did music with, provides you some real peace in these difficult days. godspeed
I used to own a few 8068 consoles. And just looking at em makes me happy.
Amazing!
I love these studio tours. How cool to see Dean Parks!
cool trip through sunset sounds. thanks lee. super fun.
Thanks Lee...as always so good and so fun....Tell the Cats thanks for letting us see a piece of their lives!!!!
Makes me so happy that Sunset is still there! :-) ............luckily it's not far from Capital ;:-)
Looking into studio 3 reminds me of the time I tried rolling a large case past the console and into the tracking room, and kind of sort of bumped the API. It left a wee little mark......I've never actually told anyone before, until now......over 30yrs later!.
Parks and Cox!, always like seeing the faces I saw almost every week back in my cartage days(late 80s-early 90s).........good times! ;:-)
Thanks for what’s behind this door tour, those are places I’ll never see. Lee,you rock !!😎🎸
Hey Lee, that basketball court is where I've seen Prince playing hoops. Also, those Neve boards are so cool, too!
Did you have pancakes after? ;)
Wowwww Leland.... beautiful Studio!!!! ❤🔥❤ Great sound!!!!! And thanks man!!!!!
Bassilicious Tour indeed. Many Thanks...... 🎩.
Pure magic!!!
So glad we got to see Walter White behind the mixing desk at 5:50, great stuff.
Great Lee, very nice to see!
Thanks so much for sharing Sunset studio with all of us, I've always wanted to know what it was like inside there, such a happy group of friends and players to be creating and hanging with! Love all the gold records on the wall. Thanks again.
Thanks Lee for taking us back through memory lane. It was 1975 or so when I met you, Joe and Dean Parks. I was just 18 or 19, a tech at Hollywood Sound Recorders. Some nights I’d have to run 16 or 24 track 2” tapes from studio to studio for all you great guys to overdub your parts on. Looking back to it all, I feel so honored to be able to have witnessed the business with all the great musicians such as yourself, the Neve & SSL consoles, the Ampex, Stephens and 3M multi tracks, the razor blades and splicing tape, the pin ball and pool tables, Martoni’s, Houston’s BBQ, and yes, that smell of Mylar in the morning! ‘Those were the days my friend. I thought they’d never end’. Thanks for sharing this Lee.
WOW! I love Lee's sightseeing Tours😘!
What a treat to see behind the scenes! That was absolutely fascinating for me. Thanks a million for that Lee. You are THE BEST.
It was already sounding cool. With only keyboard and drums. I really liked it. I was tapping my foot. 😎👏🏻
I believe it was a shuffle. No?
@@hanspeterlillese2225 so the answer is no? 😬
@@hanspeterlillese2225 in this world? It’s hard. But I’m still trying.
Well this weekend is going to be great. My new bass receiver came in the post today. Rumble 25. Put it to the test. 🎉🎸👍🏻
So cool! I pass these recording studios all the time and always wondered what they look like inside.
I love these tours! Thank you Lee!
That was crazy cool! Thanku!!
That was super cool! Thanks for the peek behind the curtain!! 👍👍👍
Great video.
Man, that was fun. Made me pine for my days in Radio where wall decorations were more likely cables and mic stands than any kind of art. I don't miss the 18 hour days and minimal pay but I miss everything else. Do as many of these kinds of tours as you can. We all love seeing the places the music is made.
😎👍❤🖖
Love Brother
Dude, thank you for taking the time to do this. This is where Van Halen cut their records. Zeppelin too and the Stones worked out of there! Legendary property it is!
Yeah man....VH is the first name I think of with this studio. Wonder if the legendary echo chamber is still operating. And it was funny Lee mentioned a Variac kicking around....wonder if Eddie ever used it.
@@orion681 help me out: what’s variac? I heard that Zeppelin recorded Rock and Roll there in early ‘71...back when Robert could reach the hot white flash vocal notes! Also, Gimme Shelter was done there with Merry on vocals. They called her at 2am and yet while pregnant, she came down and just nailed her part! “Raaaape Murderrrr it’s just a shot away...just a SHOT away!” That’s a song I’ll never ever get tired of man.... just killer!
That was very cool of you to show these studios. Thank you.
It is so wonderful to be inside where the magic actually is going to take place.
Thanks Lee to share with us a part of you day to day life.
Greetings from Mexico City.
I dig it
Very cool video and thanks for sharing it. There is so much amazing history at that studio and it has recorded so many legendary albums.✌🏻
This is ALWAYS so much fun Leland. We are all so honored to have this inside access to where the creative process takes place!
Thank you, thank you💞
Love this Lee, I was just there recording in studio 3 back in January! It was so cool to be around all of the history in that room. I also got to talk with a couple guys from Jackson Brownes band (David and Val), they were really nice and recording with Rufus Wainwright. Hope to go back one day. Love your playing and vids, you’ve played on so many songs I grew up with and are definitely a big inspiration 💛 thanks!
