It’s taken me longer than it should to feel “ready” to record again. I’m so out of practice musically, but I think I’m finally over the hump. I have a lot of decent ideas stored up from the past few months. I think I now just have to solidify them and come up with a schedule, and stick to it.
I’m still not sure if the pre-planning is the right approach. I have differing feelings about doing a lazy, stripped down set of recordings like Sam Phillips or go for something more polished but “electric”. I think I’m going for that latter.
I’m also tempted to buy a cheap acoustic guitar to help out. My Martin is still having issues with its top string.
