[Haydn Bendall]

Thanks very much for the enquiry about Yusuf Islam. I too am a huge fan of his songwriting and singing talents and I believe that he is a good man as well. However I've always made it a rule throughout my professional life never to give an "impression" of anybody I've worked with. I apologise if this is a little disappointing but I feel that the studio is a very special place and I do my utmost to respect any confidences, stories, failures and successes. I hope that you are able to sympathise with this "confessional" aspect of studio life. Thanks again, Haydn.

no problem man

I love those stories,but I understand your point.

if I am allowed to ask:
what kind of technique did you use? record singing and guitarplaying at the same time, or one after another?

cheers
