About
Benenden was a fair distance from London so I tried to avoid going there and stayed in Kent. It was a colossal house for our family – my then wife and our two children – something like 15 bedrooms, and the idea was that it would be used for the studio clients. It was mainly self-generated work from people connected to the Alan Parsons Project. We made two albums there – Gaudi and Freudiana – and legendary producer, Gus Dudgeon, who’d worked with Elton John for years also recorded there. John Miles was a vocalist on our albums so he was around a lot. Paul McCartney was there for a day or two and we worked on a track together but it never came to anything unfortunately. We did one album for a band called Vitamin Z with Geoff Barradale who now manages the Arctic Monkeys.I remember Donald Moleswort

When was the last time you worked with a Beatle?
A year and a half ago with Paul at my own studio. which came to nothing. We were just experimenting together in the studio to see if anything came out of it, but nothing did.
