Your Mother Should Know, 1967

[Rene Asologuitar]

Paul McCartney began writing "Your Mother Should Know" on a harmonium at his house in St John's Wood, London.

Mothers know best, and give them credit, as a love of a Mother transcends all explanations this world can offer, and is genuinely pure and natural.

This tune is for all Mothers, on this Mother's Day!
My first grandchild, grandson Misiri Kalayaan is born today!  Mother Rocio, Congratulations!

My Mama, and my lovely wife Mimi, and to all Moms - Thanks for all that you do, for your unconditional love!!

SM-58(b) for vocals in this one? With additional pop filter? Any particular reason for this recording setup? You're quite far away from the microphone so i'd guess you're driving it hard with compressor.

The sounds are fine! And the performance is stellar (as always ). Cool slightly jazz tinged cover, and you're clearly closer to Finland in this one as you're wearing a beanie!

Sorry for the amount of questions. I'm at that age

Very nice! Love the great singing and playing, and that room looks like a fun place for music!

I am embarrassed to say I don't remember this tune, but you do a great version. You have such a natural elastic singing voice. Very envious.

Cool audio laboratory as well.

Hi Zoltan,
Thanks for the feedback and the questions.
This is an older recording, and I have changed my set-up since then.
On this recording I am using my Bose Tonematch mixer, no compressor, straight into Presonus audio interface, into my IMAC, recorded in QuickTimePlayer movie.
The pop filter is just an additional prevention of my pops and sass's.
My new set up consist of:
2 mics - Shure SM-58 for guitar, Ear Trumpet Labs "Edwina" for vocals
into Yamaha MG10XU Mixer
into UAD Volt 2/76 audio interface
into IMAC, recorded in QuickTimePlayer movie.
I like my new set-up better.
Thanks Zoltan.
Rene
Glad to be closer to Finlandia!!!

Hi Blooby,
Thanks for the very nice feedback!
My lab is truly a work in progress.
A lot of yard sales and stuff to collect the musical items.
Thanks again!!!

René you had a great voice and unlike me you don't need any recording tricks to improve it

But tell me finally what are all those guitars behind you on the video?
