A working birthday for Scott

Not even birthday celebrations could stop Richard Scott from his recording work...

Eley
  It was a working birthday for Richard Scott as he joined Eagley Band for their latest recording project.

The highly respected sound engineer Richard Scott, who will once again be tasked with recording every National Final performance of Howard Snell's 'Gallery' at the Royal Albert Hall on Saturday, recently spent a working birthday recording the new Eagley Band CD in Bolton.

Long term link

Richard has recorded and produced all of MD Chris Wormald's CD ventures stretching back to 1999 with Smithills Schools, Hoover, Eagley and others. One the weekend he was joined by his son Stephen to lay down 15 tracks arranged by Chris.

The recording, which will be released in November, follows hot on the heels of the development of Eagley's brand new website and the release 16 page glossy promotional brochure.
