LOUISVILLE in the 60s - The Lost Allen Martin Tapes COMP CD -

Since the 1960’s,  the Allen-Martin Studio in Louisville was the place to record for most of the bands in the region. 

In 2006 when Ray Allen and Hardy Martin retired, the studio closed, a group of music lovers (Jay Petach, Marvin Maxwell & Ed Amick) stepped in to rescue the tapes for the all of bands who had recorded there over the last forty-plus years .
