The history of a metal classic AMPLE DESTRUCTION - Versions 1.0 and 2.0 Through the years the 1984 debut album of JAG PANZER was reissued many times - with official and unofficial versions. The original LP was released by AZRA/Iron Works who also did the Jag Panzer EP in 1983. Collectors already know that this tag was not just offering a LP and maybe an additional single, but tons of various shape discs and specials, most in small quantities. AZRA/Iron Works got kind of famous for that in the metal scene. The secret behind this form of marketing is that the owner, David Richards, was able to produce all those shapes in his basement. A nightmare for collectors today... Not many fans know about the two different mixes of AMPLE DESTRUCTION. So it´s time to talk with Mark Briody. About less known facts and nerdy details. Please let us know about the recording studio. Was it 24-track? And how do you remember the other equipment? InchIt was a Tascam 16 track tape deck. He also had a Tascam board. For reverb he had an actual plate reverb, it was this huge big metal plate by the wall. He had SM57 and SM58 microphones. We rented a few high end microphones for cymbal overheads.Inch How many days did you spent recording the album? Inch It was 8 or 9 days, but they weren't full days. The studio was pretty busy back then since it was the best studio in town. So we got in whenever we could for a few hours.Inch Were parts of the LP recorded live? Did you use any form of clicktrack back then? Inc
