The Manor Studio (aka The Manor) was a recording studio in the manor house at the village of Shipton-on-Cherwell in Oxfordshire, England, north of the city of Oxford. ==Overview== The Manor was the second residential recording studio in the United Kingdom. The first being Rockfield Studios in Monmouthshire The concept was pioneered in 1969 by French musician Michel Magne in the Château d'Hérouville. The manor house was owned by Richard Branson and used as a recording studio for Virgin Records, although artists signed to other labels also used the studios. Albums recorded here include ''Tubular Bells'' by Mike Oldfield during 1972–73 when Oldfield was given a week to record the album at the studio. The Bonzo Dog Band were recording there immediately afterwards (hence the inclusion of vocals by Viv Stanshall on ''Tubular Bells''). Sandy Denny also began her second solo album ''Sandy'' there in March 1972. In April 1995, after the takeover of Virgin Records by EMI, The Manor Studio was closed as a recording studio by EMI. It is now the country home of the Marquess of Headfort. In 2010, ''NME'' reported that the Manor was up for sale for £5.75 million. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Manor Studio」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
