The first time Beck came to visit the studio he unknowingly pushed through our unfinished front door, knocking over and nearly demolishing 5 instruments, 6 mic stands, and a guitarist. And you can hear it in the music! This dynamic group performing compositions by Mr. Burger bring together elements of jazz, prog-rock, and American roots. That’s a description that would normally trigger a gag reflex in me. And yet, musically this is my favorite project that has come through our doors so far. The recording process pushed my limits as an engineer as the session was recorded entirely live in two days.
