You'll be telling me selfies taken left-handed are different from right-handed, next...

Eric Clapton's known as Fasthand when playing left-handed, of course.

Yes, extreme compression was first invented to torture prisoners with headphones on. Daft Punk took a note and history was born.

When James Brown said the immortal line...
"...take it to the bridge.."
his sax player took his instrument to the Butt Memorial bridge and gave it to a beggar who taught himself to play that sax and went on to become the guy who played on Gerry Rafferty's Baker street

Couldn't manage to fix it in the mix? Don't worry, we can fix it in the mastering.

Always trim down your guitar strings nice and short before stringing them.

Actually it was meant to sound like that - it's art and I'm an artiste.

Vocal booths were invented only because Frank Sinatra had horrible bo and they wanted to segregate him from the rest of the studio.

As any competent musician knows, music is composed in bars. This practice started some decades ago. Early examples include Dean Martin's Little Old Wine Drinker, Me, Frank Sinatra's One More For the Road, and Sammy Davis Junior's There Was a Tavern in the Town.

There are exceptions, of course. Sammy Davis Junior's French Fried Potatoes and Ketchup was written in the cafe next door.

The original Beatles Abbey Road cover was with all Beatles members crawling over the street. Unfortunately Paul McCartney was killed by a car during that session so they got a replacement Paul and walked over instead for the final cover to avoid more accidents. That's what started the Paul is dead rumors.
