November 12, 20241 yr What a great song off his new album with his daughter Romany singing lead. This could be a deep house hit…

December 14, 20241 yr https://www.jerrycantrell.vip/tours/g25vac9qhwmzkqo9uh5yxzgxrhd0setf Coming to mesa.Oooh. Just saw this. Thanks.
December 18, 20241 yr I really enjoy the little “shorts” that he posts on YouTube and Instagram. Nice absorbable tidbits if you don’t have time to watch the full interview. For example, had no idea the band left and the engineer had to create the guitar solo himself in the final mix.
December 18, 20241 yr I like to think I have pretty good timing, and I can't for the life of me spot a "rushed" part of that guitar solo. I mean, it's a guitar solo. They're usually a mess. That one is cleaner than most. Can someone point out where he rushes?
March 20Mar 20 Rick interviews Adam Duritz. August and Everything After came out when I was 14. I loved it then and I still love it. Rick is a pretty good interviewer. He lets his guests talk.
March 21Mar 21 In general I think Duritz is a putz, but that first CC record is fantastic. I've seen them live a few times and he just can't be bothered to stick to the melodies. Drives me crazy.
May 27May 27 I didn’t know much about Pat Travers other than my brother loved him, a few of his hits, and a fellow musician friend of mine played guitar for him for a couple of tours a few years back. Good interview so far, seems like a good guy. Edited May 27May 27 by Rip76
July 10Jul 10 This is really cool. I’m not saying it will change their lives for sure, but it’s possible if the right people hear it. That first drummer, Emma Harner and Cecil Alexander are talent.
July 10Jul 10 Don't know if this has been already discussed, but Fil at Wings of Pegasus has a good channel in the spirit of RB, but from a more "technical" and performative perspective. Below is an interview of Jeff Scott Soto (Yngwie!).
August 22Aug 22 Glyn has a famous 3-microphone technique on drum kits attributed to him. I'm gonna carve out some time for that interview. Thanks.
August 22Aug 22 OK, that's fascinating. He talks about his 3-mic technique but I always thought it was for stereo. It wasn't. He miced (equidistant) up high over the snare, off to the left looking in over the floor tom at the snare but had both overheads panned CENTER. He also had the 3rd mic (kick drum) panned center. He's recording Led Zeppelin, steals one of the drum overhead mics to record a Jimmy Page acoustic track which he panned off to one side, put the mic BACK on the drums but forgot to pan it back to center. Bonham plays, and Johns likes what he hears. Moment of brilliance: "hey, what if I pan that other 'center' mic to the left?" and voila! the 3-mic STEREO drum technique is born. I love this shit.
August 22Aug 22 Well, let's not act as if there aren't an infinite number of ways to mic a kit, none of which don't benefit from a better drummer. His technique does a very good job of balancing room + individual drum sounds w/o chewing up a bunch of tracks or suffering from phase issues.

His technique does a very good job of balancing room + individual drum sounds w/o chewing up a bunch of tracks or suffering from phase issues. It does, and I quite like it, but it's super susceptible to balance. Like way more than almost any other method. You can't balance it like a spaced pair + tom mics. His book is great BTW if you haven't read it. I've been on an XY or ORTF kick lately myself.

August 22Aug 22 Just now, jimmyjazz said: If you have a fig-8 mic, try Mid-Side out in front of the kit. It can paint an astonishingly accurate picture of what's going on. I had a mid side setup last year for a bit but it I found the XY did better in my space coupled with a front of kit mic (Royer 121). The drums are in the corner of a very big room, 75 by 50 with 25 foot ceiling, and I think the way the reverb in the room sets up it fucks with the mid side a bit. The FOK aimed at the kit seems better for this space at any rate. I do like M/S in general though
August 22Aug 22 Yes, my live room was way smaller, essentially 22 x 24 with a corner carved out for a control room. I'm poor. I did however use that Royer 121 for the fig-8 mic.

August 26Aug 26 The plain white covered chairs were a bit creepy. Like some kind of weird Howard Hughes vibe. Great interview. Could have listened to a lot more.

I saw Plant about 30yrs ago, but I’m 100% sure his band did NOT play “Stairway”. My question for the musicians/historians here- Did JPJ play both keyboards and bass when they played “Stairway” live? Does anyone know?
