Day 16: Historic Day As “Sick” Is Committed For EVER!

Wednesday 28th July
What a day!  Rob left early and I got to the studio at 11.  Checked last night’s mix of “Sick” to see how it stood up with fresh ears.  Sounded good to me, but I ain’t the producer…  CT is, however, and the next move was to add the vocals, backing vocals, solos [...]
