Ocean Way Recording is the name of a series of
recording studios in
Hollywood, California and
Nashville, Tennessee. Ocean Way Studios are very well known in the recording industry due to some of the high profile albums that have been made there. The original
United Western studios, constructed in
1952, was the home of many major recording sessions in the 1960s and 1970s, including
Ray Charles' version of "I Can't Stop Loving You,"
The Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations,"
Frank Sinatra's "It Was A Very Good Year," and
Mamas and the Papas "California Dreamin'."
Bill Putnam, the original owner, sold it to Allen Sides in 1985, who renamed it Ocean Way Recording. In 1999 Ocean Way's facility at 6000 Sunset Blvd. was sold to Cello Recording Studios, and Sides retained the building at 6050 Sunset Blvd.
