I would say the gap would be even wider..

imo the gap would be vast. i've recorded very similar songs with david many times over the last year, and while i loved the organic nature of the music we made (typically unplanned, freeform jams with 3-5 musicians on sweet instruments) i've always felt the tones we got were somehow one layer removed from the sounds of the instruments themselves. i've never quite liked the top end on cymbals and snare, but i was never totally sure conversion was the issue.

after this session, i am completely sure my gripes were with the conversion. tracking with the burls made a gigantic difference, every sound we laid down i got more and more jazzed with how things were accumulating.

all i need now is 8 tracks of tape, then my vision of creating a newer, better 1976 for music will at last be complete, muahahahaa!
