When was the last time you recorded a GREAT tune?

celebritymusic · 3rd March 2006

It seems a lot of people are really focused on production techniques. My personal opinion is that the better the song, the less you need to **** with it.

So, when was the last time you recorded a really GREAT new original song, and can we hear it?

BTW - it doesn't matter if it's your song, but it has to be great!!! I'm talking 'could become a classic' type material.

Cheers!

I'm working up a new album and have about 18 sessions of which at 8 are potential candidates. These have all been in the last 6 months.

Nope you can't hear it yet, you'll have to wait for the album

Two years ago.

It was by a regional Southern Vermont jam band named Roswell Incident, and the tune was called "Annie No-No."

It was one of those cases where I realized after a little bit that my jaw was hanging open.

You can hear it in the second half of this podcast:

Reminded me all over again why I got into this business.

I happen to think the guy I'm playing with is a great song writer. Here's a few quick demo's we've done. The recordings aren't too shabby, just not polished to death.

Great songs? Everyday.

'Could become a classic'? Not yet.

To me a classic is something that will be as relavent to the next generation as it was to the one in which it was written. Select songs by the Beatles, Hendrix, Led Zeppelin--- Stevie, Prince, Tupac. Something that rises above the trend and sets a new standard.

joelpatterson · 4th March 2006

You are describing "Annie No-No."

warhead · 4th March 2006

I have been working with a couple of acoustic artists who write great songs, perform them well, and nail vocal takes first time out. I'm pretty lucky that the select projects I work on nights and weekends with are just that, select.

There's my FEA partner's brother, who is a poet / songwriter from Jersey and a voice so smooth and full of character it's amazing...added in with real storytelling? Incredible.

Jeff's Stuff can be heard here, which is about a 4 or 5 year old demo / scratch mixes. I played keys and drums on them.

There's a 17 year old high school student who is working on his stuff here, I've been recording him since he was 15. His songs are wonderful, inspired by his idol Edwin McCain. Very cool project.

I did not record the stuff on Bryson's site, he worked on that with Larry Chaney.
