What an amazing day unveiling the 10cc plaque at Strawberry Recording Studios with our very special guests Peter Tattersall founder of the studios, Peter Wadsworth curator of the Strawberry Studios archive and Liam Newton, author of the definitive biography on 10cc ‘The Worst Band in the World’.
It was a very special opportunity for us to remember the groundbreaking music made at Strawberry inside the place where all the magic happened and we are so grateful to Damian, the owner of the building for making this possible.
It was wonderful to hear Peter Tattersall telling the story of the recording of ‘I’m Not In Love’ inside the control room and spine chilling to hear the unreleased version of the song resonate around what was the studio space.
Special thanks to Paul Mcnulty for getting in touch with Lol Crème about the event and reading out a wonderful personal message from him talking about how his memories of making legendary music in Stockport.
Massive thanks to the team at The Red Bull for their delicious ‘Dreadlock Holiday’ hot buffet that and for their great hospitality as ever.
It was lovely to meet everyone who came on the tour from as far afield as Oxford and Leeds and our guest Liam who travelled from his home in St Albans to be part of the event.
Thank you to everyone who supported the event and our project through the purchase of our Strawberry Studios Forever album and Stockport Music Story maps.
We are very grateful for the support of the UK Shared Prosperity Fund which has made it possible to produce a series of commemorative record plaques in Stockport. 🙏 🙏 🙏
