* Rock n Rollin' on the Riverboat *
OK everybody, here's the last installment from those recording sessions -- for starters, here's my 50's rock 'n' roll track. That's Rob Berry banging his brains out on the piano, and Paul Mertens blowing the bejesus outta the sax.
And just to leave everyone on a positive note, here's a little dixieland music. In retrospect, I probably should've tracked a tenor banjo player, but everyone seemed to like it as-is, so I guess I'm off the hook. For all you techies out there, take a listen to the tuba... that's actually a trumpet, recorded at 192 kHZ, then pitch-shifted down 2 octaves and resampled at 44.1 kHz! Sounds a little more pointed and not quite as round and warm as a tuba, but it's close enough... I've gotta give credit to Mike Connelly for inventing this technique, and also adapting his trumpet playing to give it a more "tuba-like" delivery.
Thanks for listening everybody! Hope you've enjoyed the tunes!
