Just saw this. Resisting urges to make Spinal Tap puppet show joeks. Nice one Thoma!
Subscribed to Tape-Op (for free) last week in order to be able to read archive articles. Was after a particular article about the recording of "Pass You By" by Gillian Welch and the recording of the upright bass part played by Roy Husky Jr. In the article T Bone Burnett (who has made some of the best sounding records of the last 20 year imo) claims that bass on the record was coming through the vocal mic only and that the close mic was completely out. I find that pretty hard to believe tbh.

Any thoughts?
This Friday I'm doing a live performance of some music I was involved in putting together for The Journey Home the Little Angel Theatre. It's a kids puppet show with very little speech and we were so happy with the music.
The full show is on at 5 and we're playing at 8.
The puppets are incredible but I wonder if the material is a bit much at times. It's focussed on climate change and habitat destruction.
Get 'em young!!
