JOHN
LAYS DOWN SOME HOT GUITAR ON PG &
FRANK CD !
(Oct
7th 2008 Kristiansand, Norway)
John started
production on the new PG & Frank CD
" Chasing The Wind" on Tuesday.
Sessions have been fabulous,
featuring some great playing between JB and top session ace drummer Bruce
Rasmussen.
Recording has been
going on at Number1 Studios in Kristiansand, with Per Kjetil Farstad
at the board engineering.
The remainder of the
CD will be recorded in Texas at
John's studio Tyler Trax 5, and
mastered at Frontier Studios, in
Copemish, Michigan.
Says JB, " Well, this
has been a total treat! I wish all
projects could be like this, with
not only total pro's all around me,
but some of the nicest people I have
ever had the pleasure to have worked
alongside of. The music is shaping
up better than we could have hoped
for, and I'm expecting this CD to
really turn some heads, not only
here in Norway, but worldwide. It's
going to be THAT good!"

Says John;
'"As much as I have toured the world as a performer,
recording has
always
been at the fore front of my
life. Ever since my first session
when I was
15
years old, I have felt most at home in the confines
of microphones, baffles
and control boards. I treat
the recording
process with extreme seriousness
while
at the same time making
the process fun and
memorable for any artist
I produce. I strive
for one
thing, and that is to use the best of my ability
and
experience
to record the best project I can with the
goal of achieving
commercial
success for my acts.
I've been blessed to have worked with some of the
greatest talent in
pop / country music, as well as
the cream of the crop studio players,
engineers and
producers. All of that experience helped make me the
producer / player I am today.
The business of music will always be changing, but
the process of recording music will remain a
constant. As long as it does, I'm happy
to continue
working on great songs, alongside great artists.
Recording
is a like a sip from the fountain of
youth....It never gets old for me." |
