Subject: Bill Putnam / Acoustics

Ken Deifik mentioned the name Bill Putnam, in reference to early reverb
recordings. Bill was also instumental in the 1947 recording of the
original Peg O' My Heart, using the mic setup in a tiled mens' room,
which gave the recording the reverb sound almost unheard of at that
time. This was an innovation supposedly discovered by Bill, and was one
of the first, if not the first, use in a commercial recording. Check out
a photo of the 'Cats with Bill and his daughter at:
