Playground Studios, Valparaiso, Florida

American recording studio built 1969 by Finley Duncan with support from Shelby S Singleton Jr., located in Valparaiso, Florida. It was the home of Minaret Records, Turrett Records, Choctaw Records, and Circle Records (21). During the years from 1969 to 1989 some very obscure but now sought after recordings were made at Playground. The facility sat empty between 1989 and 2005 when Jim and Jill Lancaster purchased and renovated the facility. Keeping the Playground name, they updated the studio to an analog/digital facility.
