New CD nears completion! - April 9, 2009
I've been chipping away at the shapeless block of stone that will soon be recognizable as my next CD, and it's nearly done! I think. I'm mixing now. Mixing, for those of you not actually familiar with the recording process, is where you face all the choices you didn't make earlier when you had the chance, and fix any problems with "studio magic".
With the state of the economy as it is, both globally and locally (as in my bank account) I am on the prowl for parties other than myself (are there record labels anymore?) to put the darn thing out and promote it. But I'm confident that will happen. Is that faith or stupidity? Hey, that's a good title.
Actually, it turns out the record is an examination of the coming of age experience as viewed from the dual perspectives of the 17 year old boy going through it and the 50-ish father remembering, reminiscing and re-living it, entitled "When I Was Your Age..." Unless the record company has a different idea--I'm open to other's ideas and easy to work with, not a diva at all. Call me.
