7/4 Posted September 25, 2004 Report Posted September 25, 2004 Organissimo has a lite gig schedule in September because we are going into the studio to record our next album. Stay tuned! So how is recording going guys? Quote
Joe G Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 You ever hear that tape of the Troggs in the studio; where they're cursing each other out relentlessly? Quote
7/4 Posted September 26, 2004 Author Report Posted September 26, 2004 nothin' but good times....good times! Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 Looking forward to the next cd. Great!! Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 (edited) ...as eagerly awaited for as the new set of Conns! Edited September 26, 2004 by connoisseur series500 Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 It may take a while for Jim to learn all the correct changes. Quote
Joe G Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 Well, that's the nice thing about original compositions: it's all homemade changes! Quote
CJ Shearn Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 I dunno Jim, I'm listening to the track right now, sounds fine to me Quote
Big Al Posted September 27, 2004 Report Posted September 27, 2004 Maybe there could be a Special Limited Edition 2-CD set: Disc one would be the actual album; Disc two would be the studio chatter/cussin', false starts, breakdowns (musical and otherwise), and alternate takes! I'd buy that in a second! Quote

I'd buy that in a second! Plus, bitching about other board members. Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted September 27, 2004 Report Posted September 27, 2004 "Tenderly" will be on it, right? Quote
Big Al Posted September 27, 2004 Report Posted September 27, 2004 (edited) Through various shady undisclosed sources (mainly, I made ‘em all up), I have been able to obtain early demos of the new Organissimo album. I can tell you that the music is unequivocally brilliant, and should cause a fuss like nothing this side of Smile. The tapes I’ve heard reveal a band in transition, with one foot in the traditional greeeeazy blues they’re so steeped in, and the other foot in a combination of Ornette-inspired avant-garde mixed with Styx-inspired rock & roll. Don’t ask me how, but it WORKS!!! The studio chatter is also a treat! Check out these highlights: Unidentified voice #1: He cahn’t play the fucking solo!!! *********** Joe: Randy, what’s wrong, man? You’re not your usual fiery self! Randy: I don’t know, man; I just can’t get into it. Jim: Here, read this; this’ll get ya goin’. (loud growling sound from Randy, fierce pounding on the drums, excellent take of unidentified original ensues) Engineer: Great take guys! Joe: Damn, Jim. What’d you show him? Jim: This. I printed it off the forum. (Five second silence, followed by horrified gasp) Joe: Shit man; that’s harsh. I can’t believe he’d switch sides like that. Jim: Yeah, who knew he was a closet Yankees fan all these years? *********** Jim: Here guys, I got one for each of you. Joe: A “WWJD” bracelet? Randy: Uh, Jim.... Jim: No guys, it’s not what you think. These stand for “What Would Jimmy Do.” Joe & Randy: RIGHT ON!!!! *********** Anyway, these are the highlights. I hope they make it to the second disc!

Jim Alfredson Posted September 27, 2004 Report Posted September 27, 2004 For those that may not be reading the Don Patterson thread, here is a cut from our tour with Arno Marsh in August. This is an original tune written for DP called "Patterson's People". It was recorded live at Gull Landing in Pentwater, MI. Our man Chuck Nessa was in the audience! This is a little taste of what might become a live CD with Arno. Patterson's People - remix! Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted September 27, 2004 Report Posted September 27, 2004 Our man Chuck Nessa was in the audience! "Their man" CN was sitting at the corner of the bar, 5 feet from the band and directly under the closest drain from the storm off the lake. Great (and memorable) night. Never been to the club before, but the folks were dandy and the band was a blast. Pleased to meet and talk to Arno after years of "knowing about him". A wonderful evening all 'round. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted September 28, 2004 Report Posted September 28, 2004 Yeah, that was a lot of fun. I wish we could've gone for another week or two. We were just starting to get tight! That storm is on the recordings but you can't really hear it... I should've put up audience mics. Quote
Aftab Posted October 1, 2004 Report Posted October 1, 2004 Man, Patterson's People smokes - great stuff you guys! Ya gotta come across the lake to Green Bay sometime. Quote
PHILLYQ Posted October 1, 2004 Report Posted October 1, 2004 I just lstened to to 'Patterson's People'- y'all got a winner there! Quote
