Where was "Don't Let It Go To Your Head" by Jean Carn recorded?
I’ve recently been wondering where “Don’t Let It Go To Your Head” by Jean Carn was recorded.
When I first heard it in the late 70s as a new US import single on Philadelphia International I was surprised that it didn’t have the expected Philly sound. Instead of the normal lush strings there was what sounded like a very small string section with double tracking and a piercing cheap sound. On listening to it more recently on CD, however, much of the sound apart from those strings is really high quality, and I can hear little Philly-type elements such as the crash cymbal and guitar. The overall mix itself sounds most un-Philly like, however.
Does anyone know the story behind the recording of this classic track?
