I recorded today for Ben Allen, who is producing a record by the Belgium band SX. The song was called Beachmaster--sort of an 80s thing. I was copping a previously recorded sax part which followed the vocals. Mark Cobb has been laying down drums for them for the past week.
Really, I thought I'd be better at it. I had my chart and I was ready to go, but still took me forever to nail the phrasing of the chick and the time feel of the original sax. Way longer than I thought it should. I thought I'd be quicker at it.
So it goes…I was in and out in under an hour, and everybody seemed happy with it. Success!
