After 30+ years, I finally rediscovered the secret to good recordings.
It's not the gear (duh!)
It's not the engineer (wha?)
It's not even the room (heresy!)
It's the players.
This may seem obvious, but I swear, older recordings I made in shitty rooms with shitty equipment sounds better than newer recordings I made in a nice room with boutique equipment and better engineering skills with less than kick-ass players.
Now, either flame away in disagreement, or pummel me for my grasp of the obvious.
