Recording

Continued to work on recording music all day yesterday while Mary Beth was off at Outflix. I'm not finished but getting there and have something approaching a form. It was a secret but I had enough to play what I've got so far for Mary Beth last night so I can say that it's a cover of "Cold Sweat" for an anniversary present. I had done the drums and bass before that, but working on everything else now. Did the vocals Friday night (and completely shredded my throat in my not-close-to-adequate James Brown imitation...and then the batteries went low on the recorder towards the end so I had to go back and redo the last part--after I'd stopped and lost the mucus-momentum, but I managed to get it back...) and worked on the "horn" parts throughout yesterday (most of the time spent on tuning and trying several different approaches to making the chords) and arranging all the parts into a song form (I've had to record everything individually so there's a lot of assembly). Anyway it's coming along and approaching passable. People don't post the notes for horns like they do for guitar and bass tab online so, while I think I found something that is or is close enough for the verses, I just made shit up for the chorus and it's not even close but whatever, the notes aren't the important element in that song anyway. Hopefully I can finish it and get it off the books today!
