Re: Lithium

Twisted. I like it. What's the recording rig, other than the bass?

As promised, here's my arrangement of Nirvana's "Lithium" that I did for
this singer's session.

I don't really care that you think I should have used a Behringer DI
instead; I don't care if you think the bass should go up or down in the
mix - it's how *I* like it. Plus that ship has already sailed.

The song, arrangement, playing, etc is fair game.

To be honest, I think I stepped all over my *** on the bass part. We were
pressed for time, and I was trying to produce and play at the same time
I'm
reading a chart I've never played before (I mostly do my charts in my
head,
with occasional piano noodling, so it was new to me as well).

I'll let you be the judge:

Musicians:

Meghan Tartalemella: vocals
Bill Gerhardt: Piano
John Spurrier: drums
Me: upright bass, arranger, producer, mix


Oh yeah: 1950ish Kay miced w/MXL 990s on each F hole => 2 Retrospec
Juiceboxes => Yamaha board

If you like it, I'll post some more cuts.
