Here is the mix of Ride My Coattails for review. Not much we needed to do with this one. This would be my choice for a single release.

Here is the new mix of Lonely Doggs. This mix includes a new guitar lead. Also worked with compression to soften the peaks on the keyboard lead. A bit of EQ to punch up the bass & drums. . . And finally put through a Maximizer.

I just got back from Saxon Recording Studios with our restored master tapes. Dave Anderson at Saxon is awesome. He was singing Ride My Coattails when I arrived. Dave went above and beyond in meticulously bringing every track back to life. Here is the list of songs we have:

Whispers

Right Now

Never Thought

Lonely Doggs

Preacher

Ride My Coattails

Serena

Talk of the Archways

I had a hard time pulling myself away from this studio. Vintage Guitars, Vintage Mics, Vintage Tube Amps - I was in my glory (Rumor has it that Dave heats the studio entirely on Vacuum Tubes). This brought me back to when we recorded the original “Whispers” session with the late great Johnny Leone at Studio 21 - NYC. That was the National Lampoon Studio. I remember we had to wait for our session because they were mixing a scene from a new moving they were making. “You can’t take the car - Fred wrote the mileage down.” Over & Over & Over . . . The movie was eventually released. It was called Animal . . .something I think . Anyway - Thanks again Dave for raising Cyclops from the dead. JJW
