Monday evening found me singing new lyrics to a couple of my 1977 'Hot As Ice' master tracks. There was an eerie normality about singing in 2013 with my younger self harmonising and singing back-ups.
The engineer could hardly hear the difference. I could hardly hear the difference either. (I don't have an operatic voice - so there was little that was going to change - plus I still have whatever range I used to have)
The musicians from '77 haven't met the 2013 guys, but the blend is seamless. Last night there was my good friend Jan Stavinoha playing his exquisite bossa nova 1977 guitar with my new friend Chris adding a little 2013 Getz to the track. Sublime!
There are some more of the 'old ' tracks to vocalise and then we're on to the mixing phase. The new guys will be going out on the road with me too...there is indeed life in the old dog yet!
I'll add a little snippet of sound to keep you going...there will be much more soon...
