About 6 years ago while still tracking to 2" 24-track I did beds for this band sooooo Spinal Tap it wasn't even funny. Actually, at first it was pretty funny. We recorded 12 songs of drums, bass, guitars one day and were going to finish the rest on another day. Real shotgun recording and I was looking REAL forward to it being over. Judas Priest meets Lawrence Welk.

Then I didn't label the work tapes (we were doing Midnighters and many bands didn't have the budget to buy tape so we rotated a few reels) and the next guy ERASED them.

Man, of the about 100 bands I've worked with it HAD to be this session to be Ground Hog Day. I don't even remember the redo session since I'm sure I've blocked it out with some brain defensive mechanism.

Wrapping up the redo session OF COURSE they are bummed because the original one was way more "classic". fuuck
