My recording project has gotten to a place that I would call “very close to done”. After going into Erik’s studio one night every week or two, we’ve gone thru all the tracks to create really awesome sounding mixes of every one of them. While we’ve been working I’ve been reading an excellent book about John Lennon in New York, written by his personal photographer. Learned a lot of stuff I didn’t know, plus it’s full or great photographs including the iconic “New York City” picure.
There might be a couple tweaks on one or two tracks, but for seven of them or so, I’m ready to pronounce them complete and perfect (or at least as good as we can make them). As for the other two, I need to give them a few more listens, but it’s basically there. The only step remaining on this project is the final mastering, and then its on to the cover art, liner notes and then printing and selling some CD’s and tracks online. Here’s the rundown of tracks:
Heat Wave – 5:30
Earthbound (I Wanna Fly) – 5:10
Who Can Fool Me – 3:20
Fine Red Wine – 4:45
Making Miles – 5:10
Touch the Ceiling – 6:30
Green Glove – 3:45
The Nine – 4:10
Angel Or Alien – 8:15
I already have enough material for more than half of the next album, but once this project is done I’m going to take a little while to upgrade my recording studio. More on that as it develops.
