Hiya gang. Been a while since I've been able to post any production work - glad to be partially back in the saddle at least.
This is a remake of a tune we recorded back in 1989 - from our first and only vinyl LP release. The song is called "Nerves" and is essentially about stage fright. The tune was originally recorded as a metal piece, but we've been going back and redoing our old originals as acoustic rock arrangements - a bit of fun, really.
On bass is Lance Morrison (Don Henley, Rick Springfield, Alanis Morrisette, Rod Stewart, Simple Minds, etc). On drums is my good pal Ron Wikso (Foreigner, Cher, David Lee Roth, Richie Sambora). Tony Thornton is on lead guitar - he was the original guitarist back in '89 - now with Mighty Big Finger. And my crusty non-singin' ass is back on vocal duty and strumming a bit here or there.
Unfortunately, that son-of-a-bitch Uncle Sam didn't fully stress the importance of proper ear protection as I sat 12 inches away from the 120mm main gun on an M1 Abrams tank back in the 80s, so sometimes I really struggle to get a clean mix void of any mud.
As simple as this damn song sounds, there are like 20 tracks (mostly drums) ... lol. Am contemplating maybe doing a PMC with this tune, or one of the others we are working on still.
Cheers.
