Phil replied: this is entirely speculation on my part, and I don't expect you to answer this on or, off list however, I remember you posting before that you were working with Tom Schuman who's the keyboardist from Spyro Gyra. Note: remember that anything we post on this list is searchable on Google such as the following: //www.freelists.org/post/ddots-l/OT-session-videos,12 "Its quite a cast of folks who are playing on it and co producing. Tom Schuman who's the keyboardist from Spyro Gyra," Shawn continues: 2: The cost of this work is $1000.Phil replied: so if necessary, pay him off and use your keyboard parts thatis, if you prefer them. It's your record and ultimately, you need to be happy with what's being tracked. You are the one who has to live with it. Having done session work and coproduction myself, I never get offended if someone doesn't use all of my work, providing I have done my best for the client and been paid. I thought that the keyboard playing on Shawn Brock- Sunset Motel.mp3 sounded cold and lifeless. E.G. like someone was doing a job and not paying any attention at all to the vibe on the track. Just banging out what he thought was right. The clue to me at least is in thetitle. I would have taken a look at that and given a careful listen to yourkeyboard playing which I am assuming was on: Shawn Brock- Sunset Motel- 2.mp3. The playing on this track was light and airy, and the sounds alittle softer. As a producer/arranger, personally I preferred your playingover his. You left a lot more space on the tune and to me at least,captured the vibe on the track better. I did like the fact that he followedthe stabs on the end however, you could easily punch in and do that end section.
