Listen, I was a radio reporter back in the 80s - and I know what I had to go through just to run crowd noise under a flippin' voicer. I can't even imagine how li'l guy worked his magic. lol

I bet that was a cool career. Are you still in Journalism?

No. At some point, I decided it was better to actually get paid than have a "cool career." lol

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

lol yeah, that is what stopped me from pursuing journalism. Once I found out how much TV reporters were paid... I thought, "hell, I need to be able to pay mortgage and car note" .

I ended up in nursing. Not a cool career, but it definitely pays the bills. neutral

I thought of this thread today when I was listening to "Courtin' Time" from Emancipation.

Not being a muso myself, I rarely give a thought to the complexities involved in layering the vocals - I just love how the final product sounds biggrin
