Homeskoolin’ Day At The Office “Anything Else Jaime?”

00:00 - Working as a session / producer
Notes
Some days at work are just very relaxing…finishing up this record i am producing for Jaime French and I gotta say, sitting at the console listening to Wendy Moten sing backup vocals all day is not a bad way to make a living friends.
The hardest part of the day was deciding what to order for lunch
Trust me, this ain’t the way it goes every day…as much as I wish it was.
Surround yourself with extremely talented people and life is a hell of a lot more interesting
Check out Jaime French on YouTube …she is a well known comedian who also happens to be an amazing singer
Really enjoying this project …hope you enjoy as well friends

Homeskoolin’ Bonus “BIG Bang For The Buck”

00:00 - 'TOP of clean sound' amp
Notes
You would be AMAZED if you knew how many of your favorite guitar parts were recorded with one of these legendary grossly underpriced beasts.
The Roland Jazz Chorus 120
There was a time in music history when basically EVERYONE was using one of these amps…
you know why? Cuz they sound fucking amazing
For what it costs to buy one of these , there is really no excuse not to have one
Certainly not the right amp for everything, but the stuff it IS right for? There ain’t nothing better
