Day 1, album #3?

[dswim2]

It sounds like this album is shaping up to be a jazz album (or at least a heavily jazz infuenced album)...which I'm down for

I'm very excited about this new album. It they can get it out in May or soon thereafter - fantastic. And why not. Haley knows her way around the studio and record scene now and she has always upped her game once she knows the score. Concord seems to be a excellent fit for her.

I'm delighted to see the musicians, producer, and label with jazz/funk/Latin inclinations. I hope this group can bring out the magnificence that Haley is capable of in her singing and sound. Bringing in Scott to play some keys is also a great sign. Ya, signs.

It's looking likely Casey is on the album too, his snapchat of Haley shooting hoops outside the studio was posted a day before Scott posted his photo w/ Haley. Haley's on Casey's 1st two albums, on his coming live album, it's about time she had Casey on one of hers

"Water to Drink"
Interesting that Casey tweeted a clip of himself strumming this song:

I feel the same way! I'm so happy Haley is including Casey after she was on some of his recording projects.

Sunset Sound Studios

“Why would I want to own a studio,” Walt Disney responded to the suggestion of his company’s director of recording Tutti Camarata. “I’d rather be a client.” Was this gentle Walt’s way of asking his music man to seek employment elsewhere, or a subtle nudge to encourage entrepreneurship? Tutti presumed the latter, and so it began.It was a perfect little brick structure, once an automotive repair garage. The walls, ceiling, and floor all slanted toward one corner of the cavern where the excess automobile fluids trickled into a drain. Non-parallel surfaces are ideal for acoustic control—and ideal for a studio! Tutti kicked the tires a few times and declared “I’ll take it!” Little did he know that the small step he took in 1958 on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood would soon be joined by the stampede of giants.

Once he got the engine up and running, Sunset Sound’s one studio began cranking out Disney recordings for “Bambi”, “Bedknobs & Broomsticks”, “Mary Poppins”, “101 Dalmations” and dozens of others, many in the then state-of-the-art format: magnificent mono. Fortunately the formats evolved as quickly as the stellar giants revolved in and out of the studio’s doors over the next few years. In short order, it was “Goodbye Goofy, Hello Rock’n’Roll.”...

15 OF THE WORLD’S MOST LEGENDARY RECORDING STUDIOS

On the other side of the world, we have Sunset Sound Recorders, on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, California. It was originally built for recording the music to Walt Disney movies, and you can thank them for Mary Poppins, Bambi, and 101 Dalmatians, but they went on to much greater rock heights.



Probably the most famous album recorded here was the Rolling Stones’ Exile on Main Street (1972, and pictured above), generally believed to be their best ever, but it was also the home of the Beach Boys’ best album, Pet Sounds (1966). My personal favorites, however, are Led Zeppelin’s albums Led Zeppelin II (1969) and Led Zeppelin IV (1972), both of which were partially recorded and mixed here. Other famous ones include the Doors’ The Doors (1967) and Strange Days (1967), Jet’s Get Born (2003), the O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack, and, of course, Macy Gray’s On How Life Is (2000).

Studio 2...
Telefunken mic kicked!
And that Neve Console rocks!

I am curious about the nature of the album. It does seem like it might be more jazz oriented. Concord Records does not shy away from producing remakes, so I wouldn't be surprised if "Water to Drink" (posted by John) and others are on the album.

Now we're talking! Sounds just great.

If setting this up had anything to do with cancelling the swing through Europe last fall (my unused tickets are still sitting on the kitchen shelf) then I am all for it ...

Martin Guigui Thank u Jude!
We just tracked Blind Faith's "Can't Find My Way Home", and Haley nailed it, made it her own. Some cool originals too. The record is her homage to the 60's.
