Whetstone and Stephen Appleby, Advision originally provided voiceovers and
jingles for television advertisements. The studio was initially located at 83
New Bond Street, but moved to 23 Gosfield Street in 1969. By the mid-1960s
Advision had become one of the top London studios for Rock and Pop music. The
Yardbirds recorded their 1966 album Roger the Engineer at Advision on a 4-track
machine. The Move recorded some of their early hits at Advision, including
Flowers in the Rain in July 1967. In early 1968 Advision became the first studio
in the UK to obtain a professional 8-track recorder, which was built by Scully
Recording Instruments. Among the first artists to use the 8-track machine were
T. Rex, The Who, and Caravan. In 1970 the studio used a custom 24-channel desk
with an 8-track recorder. Advision was also first in the UK to install 16 and 24
track recorders in the early 1970s.
