"I come from London, England to record at Alta Vista Recording and it's well worth the trip. It's got that mixture of a calm, relaxed, friendly environment with a thorough professionalism and attention to detail. I'm always knocked out by the results."
Roger West, recording artist
London, England
"To My Fellow Musicians;
Howdy, I'm Tex Parker, a song writer from La Grange.
Recently, I had the occasion and pleasure of recording some of my future hits with Tom Johnson at his Alta Vista Recording Studio in Austin.
My happiness knows no bounds at the results.
I have recorded in studios all over America; Austin, Houston, Nashville, Bakersfield and points in between. Tom's far surpasses any.
Tom is the total professional; knowledgeable, without ego, the equipment is first rate and his gentle and sometimes firm leadership guided me through the sensitive intricacies of modern recording techniques with skill, passion and great aplomb.
He does the little things, too, like at the end of the session, he presented, without my asking, three copies of my CD. One gold for duplicating, one gold backup for security, one regular to listen to in the van on the way home.
I was completely happy with the results, and the price was right, too. If you record with Tom, I am sure you will also be very happy.”
As Always, Love from La Grange,
- Tex Parker
"Tom recorded me at the Cactus. Then he gave me a CD
of what he had recorded after he cleaned it up at his
studio. I thought he made me sound really good. I also
knew, just from talking to him, that he wouldn’t
charge me an arm and leg if I wanted to come into the
studio and record, so when I was ready, I didn’t even
think about going anywhere else. Alta Vista was a
really enjoyable place to record. Tom has very good
equipment and everything was really laid back. I got
to have a lot of involvement in the process, and with
Tom’s help, both the live recordings and the tracks we
laid down in the studio came out great.”
- Philip Gibbs
“With Tom, I felt like I was working with someone who
was really looking out for my best interests. He
helped me make the most of my budget, and found ways
to make my ideas work — and even make them better. He
even helped me find the right people for my first
full-length CD. I really felt well taken care of.”
- Daniel Link
“Tom’s positive energy is infectious. He went out of
his way to make the studio experience comfortable,
pleasant, warm and joyous. He obviously loves what he
does, and his enthusiasm makes a big difference. He
puts in a lot of hours to make the music he records
sound as good as he can possibly get it.”
