Back in the mid-1990's, the owner of a local recording studio called me in to do three cuts for a guy named Shannon Tedder for his self-produced CD, Breezy Dreams. This cut, Cabaret is one of them -- © copyright by Shannon Tedder - all rights reserved - used with permission.
Listening to the track while putting my sax together I thought the rhythm track sounded a little like a Pink Floyd cut, so I figured I'd approach it that way. So I got in the booth, we found some recording levels, the engineer rolled the "tape" and the result is Cabaret. This was the first and only take. I've ripped it in 64khz stereo, because I have DSL Lite (not much faster than a dial up) and I wanted the upload and download time to be reasonable. Use that as a guide as to whether you want to stream it or download it. I probably would have developed the solo differently if I had more time, and perhaps wrote a "head" for it and returned to the "head" at the end of the song, but I don't know if would have turned out any better or not. I also would have rather recorded this at the same time as the other musicians, as the visual and verbal communications between jamming musicians can make for a better listening experience. But that isn't how it went, and for a first take on a song I was unfamiliar with, I'm happy with the result, and the client was happy with the result (and that is what is most important). A "Thank you" goes out to Shannon Tedder for allowing me to post it here. |
