Week 3 Making Shangri La
Back in the studio this week, here’s Glenn, Jim and Richard routining a new song in the control room with MK.
We tend to spend quite a while discussing how we should approach each song at least to start with, ie. what guitars and amps to try and whether Jim or I should man which keyboards, experimenting with different mics etc. We’ve been swapping roles quite a bit on this record.That’s me checking the chart with Mark
Here’s a couple of studio shots. One of me
and one of Richard playing his Gretch. note chart attached to theramin stand
another of the studio lava lamps and an exquisite old radio
Larry the Lizard
Here we have a pic of the back plate on Mark’s new Pensa MK80, I’ll snap one of him playing it later
Richard’s world, in the midst of trying just about every guitar he owns…and Mark’s. Tuning a ukulele.
im Cox at the Yamaha 7ft grand..one of the nicest pianos we’ve played
Chad had a problem seeing his chart yesterday so Chuck’s ‘headlamp’ came to the rescue
Barbarella
another couple of vibe shots, Lava lamp action and the juke-box monitor section at night
chart-checking (again)
the beach (again) It’s been a bit wet and the surf’s been a little big, at least for me – so no surfing so far this week
