Here I am warming up.

And then laid down the vocal.
Picture
Caption: Did a couple passes for warm-up.
Got one take that was quite good.
Re recorded the bridge,
After listening, I said, "Let me try another take. I think it needs to be more legato."
I was correct. Or I just lucked into a really good take.
We still used the bridge from the first take. The redo, that is.
Caption: So now it's back to mixing "winter blue" and writing the string arrangement for
"I Want To Know
(What You Told The Sun)"
New music coming soon!
