e visited a taping in the winter of 1975. EG Marshall recorded his intros separately and was not at the session. Hy Brown sat behind the glass with the recording engineer. it was still the days of reel to reel tape and a pair of Ampexs were rolling at all times.. The studio was big enough to hold a table and chairs where the cast did the read through. To the left of the control room was more glass and a very small room where sponsors / guests could watch the tapings. Behind the boom (and out of the picture Michael shared) was Al Schaffer's amazing sound effects kit, which he very kindly demonstrated for us. I saw the production of "The Rise and Fall of The Fourth Reich", an amazing story written by Henry Slesar. The cast were total pros. Bob Dryden played Hitler. There were flubs. Hy and the cast laughed a lot and then got back to business. We took Paul Hecht out for coffee afterward.
