Hey, Mac...
Well, coming from you that is much appreciated! Usually, the song starts out as a simple (or complicated) tune on the acoustic guitar. Nothing too fancy occurs until we take it into the studio. Maybe we do not act or interact like others in the studio. When there, we put down the basic acoustic guitar first. By that time one of the three of us are hearing all sorts of other things...sometimes strange things. This is where the fun really begins. In Dreamstation, in the bridge, we altered the beat but still staying within the tempo. Then we added a cathedral bell, then we must have listened to it three times and something was still missing. We experimented, and eventually added coronet, french horn, baritone, trombone and tuba played one octave BELOW its normal range. And then, of course, the little guitar run and chord at the end. That's a brief overview of how it happened...anyway, thanks so much for noticing!
