chris got a new 12 string, and asked if I wanted to do anything with this song. chris is doing 2 - 12 string tracks and I am doing the rest. always like doing a psyche-rock song.

Well P777 you certainly choose some memory-jerking songs to cover -
This is another one that I have on 7" vinyl in the attic - on the blue Pye label I think(?)
I'm only listening on laptop speakers but even these give a swaying/phasing swing to proceedings - it sounds like you guys had a lot of fun putting this together. All that I'm short of here is low-lights and joss-sticks -well done you two.

A tech question if I may - what are those small cymbals called that I can hear - poss China cymbals??

[phantasm777]

thanks
SteveB, I expected this song to fade off into obvlivion!
no I have china cymbals but I do not like them, they sound like a garbage can lid. I am not exactly sure which ones you mean but I am assuming it is either mt 10 in. or my 13 in solar cymbals! I like to have at minimal, when I can afford it, at least a dozen cymbals, unless I were to get a bigger kit!

[SteveB]

P777 - Solar cymbal, eh?
A new one on me and had to Dr Google the term - now I see what you mean.
Hmm, very tasty. Well done Frank and Chris (I think that's right?). 

[phantasm777]

mind you my solars are only 12, 10 in. my 12's 16's and 18are zildjians as well as my high hats

Thats one fucking big kit you've got man , sounds real good , & Chris i love all your stuff , great post guys

[Hook]

Super cool, I've always love this song. Great job guys! Frank those drums are huge & I'm using cans which I don't often use and the panning is out of sight, it's like i'm inside your set! Oh & that bass!!!!
Rock On!

[Greeny]

That's a huge sound you've captured. Love all the drum-runs and the psyched-up panned 'swirl' going on. This is definitely my kind of scene. Very nice.

Early Quo song - really nicely done. Great deep drum sound, recorded them really well - and super bass sound.

hook, glad you noticed. I mic my drums so that the listener can imagine he is behind them playing!
