Kelly5150 - Thanks man. You nailed all our influences!
Therage! - We did this at a home studio, 16 track Tascam, TEC Scorpion desk, he had some high dollar outboard gear (Including the vocal mic), but I didn't pay much attention to that stuff back then. I know I did the clean guitar tracks with
my Roland Jazz chorus miced with an SM57, the lead guitar solo was a little Marshall combo on 8, miced with an SM57. The acoustic guitars were an ovation 12 string and a Yamaha classical. There is also a small section with a Roland guitar synth doubling the guitar line before the solo. I was always into getting the most bang for the buck. Ninety percent of the guitar parts on this tune were a single pick-up cheepo Ibanez solid body.
Keys used were
a korg dw8000, a Rhodes Chroma, and a Roland piano that the studio owner had. There may be some
Micromoog parts in there too.
We mixed and tracked this using NS-10s for the monitoring. He had huge Urei monitors sofit mounted but we only listened to the master on them. This was mixed down to Sony PCM to betamax. Too bad I couldn't get my hands on the master - it would have been great to get a good clean transfer to computer.
Sloop - thank you! Yep, I'm still playing.
