Many a masterpiece has been recorded at Capricorn Sound Studios in Macon, Georgia. Otis Redding’s manager, Phil Walden, co-founded the label, and Capricorn went on to produce a decade of southern rock hits. But as the music industry changed, Capricorn went bankrupt and fell into disrepair -- until a recent revival lifted the studio, and the city, back into the limelight. Jeffrey Brown reports.
Clarification: Frank Fenter, an Atlantic Records music industry executive at the time, was also involved in the launch of Capricorn Records as one of the label's co-founders. Fenter was not mentioned in our original segment and we regret the omission.
