Fix it in the Mix is the memoir of Paul Hornsby, acclaimed record producer and musician best known for his work at Capricorn Records in Macon, Georgia, during the 1970s. Growing up in Alabama, Hornsby expounds upon his life and his early guitar-playing forays into music, gigging, and teaching guitar lessons, then later joining Gregg and Duane Allman as a member of the band Hour Glass. After meeting Phil Walden, Hornsby was hired as a producer at Capricorn Studios, producing and engineering The Marshall Tucker Band, the Charlie Daniels Band, and others. After the closing of Capricorn, Hornsby opened his own Muscadine Recording Studio in Macon, where he continues producing music. The book is illustrated with never-before-seen photographs from Hornsby’s private collection.
