Recording this album was an exercise in speed and chance. Speed, because of the ultimate deadline of getting a release ready in time to ship for Christmas. Chance, because I live in an area of Orlando that is, to put it mildly, a living sound effects record of urban city noises. One of the things that bugged me the most was attempting to record with my Audio-Technica atm33a condenser, which is quite a good mic, and always listening back to a track and hearing passing trucks, boom cars, freeway rumble, etc. Luckily, my friend Roger's guitar ran over most of that lo-frequency stuff. Here, he joins me on one of a handful of cuts from "Christmas Each Day." Hope you enjoy it!
