this is an old song from 1995 or so that i played guitar and sang on. i remixed it just for fun. it was originally recorded on an 8 track reel-to-reel. all drums were recorded in stereo down to 2 tracks.....talk about committing to a mix!

the guitars were tracked direct through a rocktron chameleon that i tweaked a bunch. you can probably tell that i have had pretty much the same tone for many years, no matter what gear i played through.

the vocal was mic'd with a Shure sm57, no special outboard gear.

the whole song was done live in our practice room. i added an extra guitar track and background vocal track later. we were fairly tight as a three piece band. my lead was off the top of my head (in one take) which means it was sloppy. oh well, that was then, and i don't know what i was thinking back then. i was all about what we could pull off live without anybody extra or any tracks running in the background. boy was i wrong about where the future was going.
