History of Grandmaster Recorders

Californian musician Alan Dickson purchased the old Bijou silent movie theater on Cahuenga Boulevard in 1971, ultimately changing the name to Grandmaster Recorders. very quickly some of r&b’s top talent came through grandmaster, starting with Stevie Wonder. Wonder was writing and rehearsing his classic “Songs in the Key of Life” here while the control room was still being completed

By the late 70’s and into the 80’s, the studio started seeing more country and rock acts come in and record. from David Bowie and Ringo Starr to Johnny Mathis and Bonnie Raitt. Artists loved the relaxed atmosphere and unique design that Alan and Grandmaster had to offer.

By the late 1980’s due to the advent of the compact disc and interest in vintage recording equipment becoming greater, grandmaster saw a massive influx of rock and roll bands coming in. The Red Hot Chili Peppers recorded their first recordings here and the Black Crowes completed their 5x platinum album, ‘Shake Your Money Maker’ at Grandmaster.

By the 1990’s and 2000’s, Grandmaster Recorders had worked with some of the heaviest and most visionary bands like Tool and Queens of the Stone Age to the signature anthems of No Doubt and Foo Fighters to the more intimate passion of Jack Johnson and Ben Harper. Even Kanye West spent time at Grandmaster Recording his album ‘Late Registration’ here.
