| | The Genesis of Audio Vision Studios involves
all of the original
visionaries
responsible for putting Miami on the musical map.
Their contributions to the Miami music scene, as
well their influence
on music in general cannot be overstated.
Mack
Emerman (Criteria Recording Studios) and
Steve Alaimo
(TK Records) are responsible as the main instigators
of the healthy
music industry that Miami enjoys today.
Ron
and Howard began engineering at the then
one room
Criteria Recording Studios
in the mid 60's.
While Ron and Howard were hard at work with :
The
Allman Brothers, Crosby Stills & Nash and Eric Clapton,
Karl
Richardson (along with Barry
Gibb and Albhy Galuten)
would turn out hits with : The Bee Gees, Barbra Streisand,
Kenny Rogers, Dionne Warwick and Dolly Parton.
All the while,
Ricky
Taylor and Steve Alaimo were across town creating
TK Records funky multi-platinum sound of :
KC & The Sunshine Band,
Betty Wright, George McCrae
and Bobby Caldwell.
Through the combined efforts of
Mack, Howard, Ron, Karl, Steve and Ricky...
the "Miami Sound" was born.
These achievements would be enough for
most...
but, these partners are still having a major influence today
with an efficient 'can do' style of Studio operations and management.
