While I’m waiting for the album to come back from manufacturing [more news on that tomorrow], here are some pictures taken during the recording sessions Summer 2015.
You can click on any of the pictures to see a larger version.
Pam Rule and Joey Stuckey, getting ready to record the vocal parts to Break Forth.
Tom Rule, recording. Yes, I was comfortable!
Sometimes I spent a lot of time listening and thinking. I have no idea what Joey did back in the Control Room while I did.
The Gift – what I was looking at while recording it
Chet Burchfield played on the two jazz trio numbers.
Miguel Castro playing Pringles and Coffee cans at the beginning of “Its CHRISTmas!”
The Jade mixing board at Shadowsound.
Dr.Marcus Reddick played on 2 cuts and did some absolutely magical drum parts.
Brian Bogle played multiple saxes and also created some pretty cool stuff.
Vadim Volynets normally plays Bass in the symphony, but I was able to talk him into playing cello for the album.
Joey Stuckey and Dan Wallace – recording the electric bass parts.
Dans Recording setup. We used a Blue Robby as a preamp – it was a great sound!
The reason track #12 is so special. “Its Goodnight, Not Goodbye”
