Re *The Palace*

In response to an inquiry, I replied (because of course I did),

The gin was my fave, Seagram’s Extra dry. I like it wif at least one olive, and mebbe onyums or pickled ‘shrooms, and a teaspoon of olive juice, 1-3 rocks. Alternatively, no rocks or fruit, and 4-5 drops of bitters, lately Pechaud. All of the guitars (G&L F-100 or Gibson American, into a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe with various pedals, mic’d close with a CAD Trion 8000 ribbon into a UA710, or far with a Shiny Box 23L into an ISA 1, or both, using Cathedral Pipes boosters) were recorded the night of 8-31-19. On three of the tracks I replaced Sam the Ghost, but did not listen to his tracks before I played on ’em.  I hadda re-learn a cuppla the songs as the bass and drums and vox was done early August. Attached is a pic of the guitar amps. Note that “Courage”, “The Palace” and a”A Black Sleep” were recorded using my fretless Hohner B2 (mic’d wiffa Peavey 520 onna Ampeg BA108 amp, split into a The Brick and 16XT, and a Meek VC3Q). The other two used a Alvarez with the same chain except a Shure SM7b mic. And I used some – surprise! – pedals …
