... so I had to record the darn tune to try and get over it 
I love this song so much I can’t begin to describe it. I tried to make it sound like an older recording… which lead to a weird setup.
First I recorded it on a digital 32-track recorder. Then I mixed it straight on that recorder. Finally, I played the song back through the monitor speakers and recorded the playback using my iPhone. I then emailed the darn memo file to myself, converted it to mp3 in Audacity, and then added a darn video to it using Windows Movie Maker. Utter madness, I tell you
There are only five tracks. One for the “lead” vocals, one for the harmony vocals, one for the drums, one for the finger-picked guitar, and one for the dobro/slide stuff, which I wanted mixed way in the back, like a plaintive, haunting sound, because the original song is so darn haunting to me. I had fun with this one. Can’t wait to play it live.
