Tracks

[mdlbear]

A little work on "Demon Lover" (raising the very first word, which was too quiet), "World Inside the Crystal" (a little eq on my voice to suppress the sibilants), and "Someplace in the Net" (punching in the first verse from a different take). "Little Computing Machine" has a couple of words with wobbly pitch in the last couple of verses; I'll have to think about how to deal with those. Still need a couple of drum tracks, and a better shaker track on "Wannabe" and maybe "TEOTW".

Getting down to the wire here.

I'm curious about whether you had arrangements worked out ahead of time or whether they're more incremental responses to what you hear as the tracks develop.

The arrangements are all very much ad hoc, and have evolved considerably over time. Callie's been performing with me for a couple of years now and refining her arrangements the whole time; Joyce has been working with me for almost a year now (and we've been singing folksongs together for decades).

Planning? What's that?
