Joey: Kath and I wrote that song at Clearwell Castle. I've got the lyric sheet somewhere! It was named after the tape op (operator) at Olympic Studios, Andy Morris. I love that "…savin all my money…"
Andy Morris, a 16-year-old tape-op in 1973, told me of how Bowie created ‘Diamond Dogs’
Andy Morris, now living in Northwest Portland, was 16 when he was an assistant recording engineer at London’s Olympic Studios.
By the time you worked with David Bowie you were a bit of a veteran, aged 16?
I was in the recording studio when the Rolling Stones recorded It’s Only Rock ’N Roll (But I Like It). I remember placing microphones in the toilets downstairs when Jagger and Keith were about to sing the overdubs. I also worked with Badfinger and The Pretty Things, but Diamond Dogs was the album I worked on the most. http://www.mojo4music.com/13956/david-bowie-diamond-dogs-at-40/
