Adam Ironside: In Loving Memory... of the new CD... a life time in the making

Hey folks, thought I would share with you the opening track to my upcoming album Just Like The Detective (scheduled for release in October).

Track 1 has changed so many times I really struggled to find a good way to open the album and finally I think this is the one.

I was really happy with this take, I was in full emotional flow (and I look a bit stupid haha) and I am so pleased with this take that I'm not too bothered about that horrible open fret mistake over the F chord haha.

Anyway, the track is basically a short theme followed by an improvised solo after the orchestral intro.

I attempted some tricky editing (tricky for me anyway haha) that I hadn't done before as I want to make some music videos for the album when it is done and I think about 90 per cent of it worked ha.

Anyway, let me know what you think and I hope you enjoy the opening track to Just Like The Detective.

For those interested here is the signal chain

Mic'd with a SM57.

Again for those interested this is generally how I record the audio when making a video, when recording for the actual album the process is a lot more 'involved' and thorough.
