*High Time -
one of my favorites on the album, the lyric for this one poured out in about a half hour. boom, done.
it's meant to be fun and uplifting. 
reminds me of a roadtrip i once took, i imagine a lot of folk can relate to this one.

Taylor 414 and Seagull Mosaic on this one, miced by ADK Hamburg and Shure KSM44.

Nice, tight and creative.  Really good work.

it's funny, that Seagull Artist Mosaic, i used for some of the tracks on this one,
smelled so bad of cigarettes when i first bought it (pawn shop, $125 with a semi-soft case) that it has taken about 5 years for the smell to go away.
LOL

i bought it as a 'banger' guitar,
to take to the desert...
but hell, the cedar top sounds so smooth against the bright spruce top, it's a great sound blender.

thanks so much cakeboy

 

yea, melody is the thing on this one.

the riffs are melodies, the fills are melodies, the whole thing just drives that idea home, simple, but tricky with arrangement.

sometimes, these things just happen, this is one of em.

thanks steve! this one was mostly recorded in one day,

the main rhythm guitar i just free played,

then went back and started layering more tracks,

did the percussion track, THEN did the bass track.

wrote some lyrics in about 15 minutes,

and spent an hour doing vocal tracking. one of my quickest recordings, for sure.

I HAVE UPDATED this mix,  

brought up the percussion, and bass line.

interested to see how it comes across now.
