Lot's of guitar work done over the last week... mostly for Thy Love Bind Us and Mighty Now To Save. Tim and Rob were here last night and we did some work with Rob (who actually hasn't been here in a while)... at least since we were working on his other band (no defunct) Infinite Detour. It was a fun reggae-rock project to work on... too bad for them we didn't have the tape delay machines then that we have now. Sorry Rob! Here's a little shot of Tim doing his lines for Mighty Now while Rob looks on in approval and waits for an incoming fax.
Rob did some slide guitar work for Thy Ancient Power; a hymn that was actually sent to me by the Great Al Oliver, father of Matt Oliver who played some serious recorder on the last album. I get a lot of suggestions for hymns to do (or re-do) and this was one that made it all the way to completion town.
It's sounding pretty Road House at the moment, in a good way hopefully, so we'll have to add some lalala or dada girlie parts to bring it back to New Ancients territory. Afterwards Rob broke out his sweet little cornet he bought while on a trip to Niagara Falls in the summer to do some lines for Thy Love Bind Us. There are still lots of horns to do for this album, so the next bunch of session should be full of brass work.
When Rob was finished he snapped some artsy shots of Tim and I noodling around with guitar sounds.
