WHEELS has the dubious distinction of being posted in various and sundry forms of completeness here within the bowels of the blog and elsewhere on the ReverbNation widget on the home page of this site and on Away-Team.com and elsewhere Away-Team MySpace and GALPIN MySpace. Craig took the widget and turned it into what sounds like GALPIN RADIO – all GALPIN – all the time… It’s cool there are little ads for my music and bumpers in between the songs. If you haven’t heard it, check it out – it’s a cool piece of work.

now where am i and why?

haven’t the foggiest and not a thing to wear there…

here’s a clip of WHEELS with the guitars actually running through actual real live fire breathing amps at ear splitting volume because you’ve got to move some air if you want the good stuff. the mix isn’t finished but the guitars are – mark is working on the drums as we speak – er – write – er – read as the case may be.

CLIP!!

AMPS:

– Marshall 100W Super Lead circa 1974 on the left
 
 

– Budda on the right – I don’t know the model number on that – it’s a combo – purple… with knobs… lots of knobs… when you turn them up they can hurt you – you know the one.
 
 

– Marshall JCM800 50W for the lead at the beginning – this is with our first settings – we changed the settings on this amp and actually tried two other cabinets and amps as we went from solo to solo finding the subtle differences that helped each solo sit in the mix – the middle solo is actually done on the 355 style guitar and you can hear that sturdy creaminess and roundness to the tone on that solo. All the solos ended up being run through the 1×12 with the Weber Pre-rola treatment that I dig so much.

i think that’s plenty for now – next up… SLEEPNESS.
