Byron picked me up - we loaded the car with my cast-off equipment. I've armed him up with a killer mic - mic pre amp - and compressor. He should have some fun with them!
What is it about Tuesdays? Monday nights? Sleepless again, so... exhausted through the practice, and hitting that edge of manic over-enthusiasm I'm so notorious for.
We took my Tech 21 amp down too, as well as the whitr Epiphone. I haven't used the amp for YEARS!
Fired up the kit... listened to Last Fair Deal a few times... then laid down a take - it sounds GREAT! A few little glitches and fumbles - but it's down! And a very easy one to record so - I'll just keep plugging away til I get it in one! The MP3's of Deal and Future Blues will be available as soon as I can work out how to give people web access to them.
Byron's a real joy to work with! I've been screwed over by engineers and producers so many times... but he's such a no nonsense cat!
Anyhooo... we got seven of the eight projected pieces down. I faded completely so left Come On In My Kitchen until next time.
We got:
Killing Floor
Baby Lee
Last Fair Deal Gone Down
Future Blues
Same Old Blues
Killing Floor
Dust My Broom
A great start!
Okay - from here...
Off to Byron's tomorrow to run up a couple of the originals... then into a studio on friday (free time) to record them. just the two of us.
Getting the General on the horn shortly to start laying vocals down. Probably Monday I think.
