EMI Recording Studios was the oldest, purpose-built recording studio in the world.
In 1929, The Gramophone Co. Ltd. acquired the premises of a nine-bedroom Georgian townhouse at 3 Abbey Road in the City of Westminster in London. Three purpose-built studios were constructed and the existing house was adapted for use as administration offices.
On 20 April 1931, The Gramophone Company Ltd. merged with Columbia Graphophone Company Ltd. to form Electric & Musical Industries Ltd. (EMI).
Pathé filmed the opening of the studios on 12th November 1931, when Sir Edward Elgar conducted The London Symphony Orchestra in recording sessions of his work "Land of Hope and Glory".
In 1934, the inventor of stereo sound, Alan Blumlein, recorded Mozart's "master release" which was conducted by Sir Thomas Beecham.
During the mid-20th century, the studio was extensively used by British conductor Sir Malcolm Sargent.
On 24 July 1958, Studio Two became a centre for rock and roll music, when Cliff Richard & The Drifters recorded master release there. The studios are closely associated with The Beatles, who recorded almost all of their albums and hits there between 1962 and 1970 using the four-track REDD mixing console designed by Peter K. Burkowitz.
Notable sound engineers who have worked at EMI Recording Studios include:
- Fred Gaisberg (who had set up the first recording studio in London at Maiden Lane in 1898)
- George Martin
- Geoff Emerick
- Norman "Hurricane" Smith
- Ken Scott
- Mike Stone
- Alan Parsons
- Peter Vince
- Malcolm Addey
- Peter Bown
- Richard Langham
- Phil McDonald
- John Kurlander
- Richard Lush
- Ken Townsend, who invented the studio effect known as automatic double tracking (ADT). In 1974, he became studio's manager and informally renamed it to Abbey Road Studios.
The chief mastering engineer at the studios was Chris "Vinyl" Blair, who started his career as a tape deck operator.
