John, Did you ever hear the interview Neil Tenant did for the BBC, when he described what it was like recording with Dusty Springfield?

He got the Pet Shop Boys track all set up, gave her the lyrics, adjusted all the monitors etc. Dusty sang the first word of the first line and promptly moved back from the mic. Devestated, Neil went to find out what was wrong, bad key? bad balance in the phones, hopeless song?...

Dusty said everything was fine, but that was just how she recorded - one word at a time!

Now if its good enough for Dusty....



Charge her by the hour.. and let her listen to each word on separate playback before proceeding.

I try to save people money by recording as many tracks at a time for them as I can (etc), the method above has got to be one expensive way to record..

I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
