More breakneck speed executions and productions. Most of this was recorded at a session on the 9th of February as we sped through a big chunk of Capital Model's current repertoire. Forty two songs with only one coffee break between and much additional sweat and swearing. The tracks from forty three onwards are from earlier possibly less frantic sessions. Dave Reilly mixed and mastered them (the 42) at even more breakneck speed to get them out and onto Bandcamp on the 10th of Feb. All rough diamonds from our "club night" set, enthusiastically interpreted. Not bad for some old geezers.
These are just fleeting thoughts from the heartland of the UK's colonial dustbin somewhere beyond the wall of sleep. Odd bits of music and so-called worldly wisdom may creep in from time to time. Don't expect too much and you won't feel let down. As ever AI and old age are to blame. I'll just leave it there ...
Not bad indeed JB - and your playing was, in the main, exemplary. Luckily I was able to excise all but one or two fuck ups along the way and I'm super pleased with the outcome - as long as we don't forget, that, while what's there is what we ought to be playing, it is, in almost all the songs, not what we played - but that we can surely now replicate the newly published versions. The wonders of technology! Now on to the almost 150 other titles the band has rehearsed/performed to tape over its history...
