Here’s some more great images (I know some of you already seen them 
). Free Your Mind or Maggot Brain session. I’m guessing Free Your Mind, but don’t know. Anybody knows? Photos by Don Paulsen.

George was telling me that Maggot Brain was two echo units - one on the floor was Eddie’s Echoplex, the main echo on his guitar parts that comes and goes. The other was a portable mono reel machine IN the control room, when they were mixing. It makes the twittery high-end chirpy echoes that they added to whatever tracks or parts (like drums or guitar) that they wanted to make more freakey. As they may not be recording that specific song, it’s hard to say, but there doesn’t seem to be an echo machine near Eddie.
