Release Notes:
We recorded Baboon Strength at Trout Studio in Brooklyn. They have
an old school set-up where everything happens in the same room,
instruments, mixing desk, tape machine, everything. We recorded to
16 track two-inch tape before putting it in the digital realm (for
those of you who are interested).
Erik brought his 1970s Yamaha combo organ, Casiotone and Echoplex.
His sonic aesthetic and abilities as an improviser are impeccable.
Go Erik!
Tony played Trout's big ass bass drum, snare and toms. He also
happens to be, in my opinion, the best pure pocket drummer I've
ever heard. Science. In terms of groove and time it's his world,
we live in it, act accordingly. Erik and I both concur that he
gets the game ball for this record.
I brought some decent songs and tried not to overplay. It's a
never- ending process.
Dave McNair did a hell of a job mixing and mastering the disc.
Check out the fat drum sound on Difford-Tillbrook.
