We were working on another song in the front room of Headley Grange when a second drum kit showed up. Rather than stop what we were doing, we told the people bringing it in to just set it up in the entrance hallway. The hall was massive and in the middle of it was a staircase that went up three stories. Later, Bonzo went out to test the kit and the sound was huge because the area was so cavernous. So we said, “We’re not going to take the drums out of here!”

Andy Johns hung a couple of M160 microphones down from the second floor, compressed them, added some echo and compressed that as well, and that was all we needed. The acoustics of the stairwell happened to be so balanced that we didn’t even need to mike the kick drum. Jonesy and I came out in the hallway with our headphones and left the amps back in the room and banged out the rhythm track to “When the Levee Breaks” right then and there.
