As far as what we used to record the songs I think this link is still pretty accurate:

http://www.memphisrecordsonline.com/...t.php?key=gear

Jeff Powell, the producer/engineer, replaced the NS-10s with his own monitors. I wish I could tell you what they were.

I think he sub'ed the drums out to the API and I know the piano went to the API. The Neve handled everything else.

As for microphones, there were lots of them. I think we used a Neumann U67 for most of the vocals. We also used a U67 for the room mic on the piano. There were two other mics he used on the piano over the hammers in an XY pattern.

I'll post more about the individual sessions. There were lots of little things that Jeff did ... using an ancient micro-cassette recorder to get a particular sound ... putting the drums in the lobby for a couple of songs ... etc.
