Quote for the Day:
"We would be in there with the rhythm section, and singing at the same time that the rhythm section was putting their music down.
Not only did you get the warmth and integrity of the vocals and instruments together, but the technical stuff didn't get in the way.
That is the difference with [today's music], not that they haven't come up with something that is cool, with this digital stuff, but they are [told] to sing it one time, and then they just keep looping it.
Where is the warmth in that?
I think that we have lost something."
