May be a good idea to edit the link out your quote too.
As Pink Floyd would say "a momentary lapse of reason" on the part of jtsuited.
Take it easy on him. It is Friday night after a long working week and maybe a few brews even.

sei046

Long day in the studio alright but I was actually uploading a load of stuff to rapidshare for some sessions and must have got caught up in the moment!

Alison Krauss is the bees knees. Always nicely recorded stuff. Serious amount of depth in that stripped back recording.

Wont happen again.

jtsuited

sei046

Many albums X Many Songs X Many Session Musicians = Chord Charts

Standard top drawer Nashville fare I'd say. She's an unnatural chanter that one, down from another planet I reckon.

I saw her and Union Station in the Gaiety some years ago. For an encore the whole band came out and sang and played around 1 C414.

Everyone in the place stopped breathing it was so good - and they looked like they weren't trying.

The place was wedged with Musos too ... all threatening to sell their axes the next day!

Maybe it's because they are (a) always honing their craft, (b) not obsessed with "cool" and (c) not always shooting everything, everybody ,everyband on these boards.

The posts about the Blizzards reminded me of a joke Jimmy Smith (great irish gtr player) told me about the guy that was ordering lobster in a restaurant. The waiter asked "do you want to pick your favourite"? I'll go for the Irish one" he replies, "how do you know it's Irish"? says the waiter, because when any other lobster puts his head above water he promptly pulls them back down!

If that's in relation to my posts about the Blizzards, I think I'll clarify -

I do not ever knock anyone doing anything unless I genuinely think they're rubbish. Whether they be Irish or not.

There are many Irish artists I think are up there with the best in the world.

It's a good joke though about the lobsters.

That's the way of it though really, isn't it?

In fact the B side of their current Smash Hit is a song called Dublin Town, a song about that very Lobster!

jtsuited

so hold on, paul aren't you going on about not-so-great Irish studios in another thread right now?

Couldn't you be seen as the lobster?

Personally I don't think you are the Irish lobster as you give credit where you think it's due.

The Blizzards having a song called dublin-town is probably more of an indication of their feelings about not being accepted as much in a more cosmopolitan and cultured area of the country than mullingar.

Huh? Where did you read that?

this is what I actually said -

"I've just been noticing the Google Ads on top of Boards here. If they're to believed then Ireland is full of 'Professional' studios."

There's no criticism there, implied or otherwise. The post is about how one picks a studio.

There's an old proverb down here in the midlands-

'When a lad calls another lad a Lobster ..... it's time for Bed'

Goodnight all!

are you sure? I'm pretty sure on that thread you are being implicitly critical of some Irish studios.

Maybe not.

Denial (also called abnegation) is a defense mechanism postulated by Sigmund Freud, in which a person is faced with a fact that is too uncomfortable to accept and rejects it instead, insisting that it is not true despite what may be overwhelming evidence. [1] The subject may deny the reality of the unpleasant fact altogether (simple denial), admit the fact but deny its seriousness (minimisation) or admit both the fact and seriousness but deny responsibility (transference).

lol SNAP!

i've done a hell of a lot worse than getting banned from internet forums.

and if you know anything of Freud you'll know that his denial model is deeply flawed.

Oh here';s a joke.

What's freudian slip?

It's when you say one thing but mean your mother..er, i mean another.

Did a few sessions with the guy who mixes those Alison Krauss albums.
It was a lesson in compression. One thing he said to me always stuck, the more experienced you get the better the musicians you get to work with, and the easier your job gets and the better they make you look!

sei046

Really?! Thats great man. What did you find about their compression?
