14 years later, I discover another vision of "Ozzmosis", with this sample of Perry Mason.

Amazing (piece of) track Mr Wagener, congratulations !

I worked on the version that was released as a tape operator / assistant engineer back in 1994 and now I can put a name on the "previous producer" M Beinhorn told me about during the sessions.

I could tell you a lot about these sessions but what makes me write this post is that I read all the drums were trashed to put samples instead... What a pity !

Spending so many days trying to find the best possible drum sound with Paul Northfield an Deen Castronovo... Testing Tama, Sonor, DW in numerous versions and various ways of miking. We ended with an incredible sound, recording the drums on a 2" eight tracks.

All this straight to the trash bin ? I can't believe it.

But once again, this little sample of what could have been "Ozzmosis" is a masterpiece.
