I have been fielding requests for lots of interesting production and mixing things this month-- Frederick from Ox Eagle Lion Man, a band I recorded in London several years ago- came to visit me here and we worked on 3 very cool songs for his new project called Club Royale. I just mixed some songs for The Gecko, and also a loal band called Human Elephant. 2 weeks ago I met and had dinner with Eddie Kramer; this individual recorded most of the Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin material in the world, and as such his work has inspired and blown me away for many many years. He gave a lecture presentation about his career, and showed alot of original photos from the actual sessions. he even recorded The Beatles - All You Need Is Love! Sehr Kool! PS I just watched The Beatles Anthology DVD collection for the first time- and I feel a bit more educated about their career path and history. They could really play and sing great, and it wasn't just studio magic from Mr. George Martin! x
