Studio Equipment used by Ed King on Nuthin' Fancy (Expanded Edition)
"Saturday Night Special was recorded at least 6 months before the album NUTHIN FANCY was done.
Artimus wasn't even in the band yet - Leon & I auditioned Artimus one Summer day in '74 in Atlanta and were working up a three-piece version of SNS. (We were thinking about a change of drummers, though we hadn't done it yet.) Kooper stopped by and told us about the movie - we packed everything up, moved over to the studio and cut it...no vocals or other guitars. I used an echoplex (effect) that I'd just purchased....but never used it live."
