Castle Recording Laboratory

  • ... that Castle Recording Laboratory, Nashville's first commercial recording studio, was established in a repurposed hotel banquet room? Source: "... in 1947, with a $1,000 loan from Third National Bank to convert a banquet room on the second floor of the Hotel Tulane at 206 8th Avenue North into a studio equipped with their mixing console, an Ampex Model 200 tape recorder, and a Scully lathe, establishing the first commercial recording space in Nashville."

  • Comments by Tbhotch
General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: Yes
  • Interesting: Yes
  • Other problems: Yes
QPQ: Done.

Overall: @Synthfiend: Nominated on time, long enough and no copyright issues according to Earwig. QPQ unrequired (first nomination). Most of it is sourced and is present on the sources, but the phrase "helping earn Nashville the nickname "Music City U.S.A."" sounds like original research and it should be reworded to adjust to what multiple sources say: it is the most important Nashville studio at the time.

  • I removed the line. It's good to go. If it ever needs it back, it needs to be reworded. (CC) Tbhotch 03:51, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
