Recording Session #2 in pictures!

Tune #2 is done and dusted! I wish recording sessions could all be this easy- a comfortable, relaxed setting, with cats who are not only the most happening, but extremely easy to work with.

I'm just old enough to have had a few vinyl records when … Continue reading mp3: How much music are we missing?
