The Early Years Mayfair began in the Sixties at 64 South Molton Street in London's Mayfair. The little company was poor but amazingly successful. We moved the studios to beautiful Primrose Hill in 1981. The week we moved from the old studio we had 5 records in the Top 20. It was as though the magic came with us. In the years since then Mayfair grew to become one of the most respected and successful studios in the world.

Why was Mayfair different?
When Kate and John Hudson took over Mayfair in 1979, the studio had no money. Other studios had better equipment, and Mayfair had nothing unique to sell but their enthusiasm and caring. This was a lesson never to be forgotten. It became a way of life, and from the moment you walked through the door the first time you would notice the difference. Everybody here cared. Cared about your project, wanted it to be successful. They wanted you to walk out that door happy with your work, and with a hit record on the way, and that's what usually happened.
