If you've ever worked with musicians, you know that talent doesn't always cohabit with nice or even decent. Such is the case here. The guy was a real jerk but damn, he could play guitar. And here's proof. But I won't work with him ever again...
This song started life as 91st meaning that its composition dates to 1990 or thereabouts. Late one night in Fall 1995 (?) I dug it out and he added guitar, lyrics & vocals. There's a load of production tricks in here including actual backwards echo created by threading the master tape backwards and adding echo to the vocal tracks then rethreading the tape the right way & continue to track and sweeten. The vox 'yelps' at the beginning are from my Mirage sampler. It was tracked on the 8-track and mixed/mastered to the cassette deck.
Please excuse the delay, life intruded for a couple of weeks. Regular posting shall resume shortly.
91st-The Dennis Version
22/09 Bonus! I found a version of this I did w/a previous guitar player whose initials are SS. This probably dates from from late 1992, the analog noises were overdubs & $$ to donuts, these came off the the ol' four track... Unfortunately it's only an excerpt, but sometimes you have to settle for what you can get, eh?
