Chatelain, Hazlewood and Robinson.
 
Filmed in May of 1968 for French TV show Bouton Rouge, this short documentary gives us an intimate look at Lee Hazlewood during a recording session for the song “She Comes Running” at CBE studio in Paris. It’s nicely done.

CBE is a highly regarded recording studio founded in 1966 by Georges Chatelain. State-of-the-art when this footage of Hazlewood was shot, CBE was the first studio in Europe to feature eight track equipment and most of France’s premier pop stars recorded there.

During the video, Hazlewood addresses a person named Jack (who he also calls “the boss”). That’s Jack Robinson, an American who had moved to Paris in the Sixties and ended up studying engineering and production under Chatelain’s tutelage. He co-produced “She Comes Running” along with Hazlewood. Robinson still continues to produce music in Europe, unstoppable at the age of 73.
