World-famous drummer and overall good human being, Tom Hollenbeck, walked into Signature Sound Studios to record the drum track for “There’s Nothing Wrong with You”. Sits down and plays through the track a few times to warm up, then nails it on the first take. 🥁
Great vocalists and musicians often pull that off and those takes are almost always magical moments and better than any subsequent takes. Fresher, more alive. By a 4th or 5th take the life is generally sucked out of the performance. 🤢
Reminds me of when I was but a wee lad recording a vocal for my song, “Hand on My Heart”. I struggled. The feel. The tone. The notes. Horrible! 🎧
The recording engineer, David Brown had recorded a lot of Stevie Nicks’ solo work and he said, “Let’s take a break and get some food.” So he takes me to a bar, orders shots of whiskey. I looked at him and said, “This is food?” And he said, “It’s the food you need right now.” 🥃
We drank for a bit then headed back to the studio. He cued the track and I started singing. Well, pretty sure no one would call that dying frog croak noise that came out of my whiskey burned throat singing. Oh my! Burned the heck out of my vocal cords. Lesson learned! 🤭
