wmp Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Thanks for posting that, Steve! I picked up the whole Jim Alfredson collection earlier this year. Forty years ago I had some Meters and Booker T tapes I'd listen to almost exclusively for inspiration on the way to play somewhere. For the last six months or so, it's been Jim keeping it funky and greasy for me. --wmp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J_tour Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Not to take away from the great Jim jamming on the Hammond as he do, but what really excited me was how the engineer got that great sound of the horns. Maybe this is not a welcome comparison, but it really sends me back to a mid-1960s Blue Note record. I have no idea how they got that tone captured -- I'm sure it doesn't hurt that everyone was playing great -- but just the sound is the real deal. Can't wait to pick up the album.

hurricane hugo Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Love that drummer, but the whole band was bringin' it hard. Jim's tone just reeks of nasty funkiness. and his left hand work is like whoa. http://blip.fm/invite/WorkRelease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea how they got that tone captured -- I'm sure it doesn't hurt that everyone was playing great -- but just the sound is the real deal. Can't wait to pick up the album. I'm flattered. That's exactly what I was going for. The engineer is my good friend Glenn Brown. On the trumpet is a Coles 4038 ribbon mic. On the sax is a AEA R84 ribbon and a Neumann U67 but we did not use the Neumann. Both mics are going through Glenn's Neve 8068 console. I've been working on the mixes myself. I rolled off just a bit of top-end on the trumpet (even with a ribbon it was pretty bright) and used some gentle compression (FabFilter plug-in) as well as the new tape simulation plug-in from u-he called Satin. Thank you to everyone for the kind words. I'm really exicted about this release. Lots of great moments were captured. Keep it greazy!

I first heard it through my studio monitors and the subwoofer was working!! Dig it! My only thought was if Jim was wearing clean white socks...

poserp Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Music! A nice thing to hear from time to time. Seriously, though, I also dig the "sound" of the recording (along with the solid playing). Good stuff.

Adan Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I don't know who this Jim Albertson guy is, but these are great tunes and I agree the overall production and sound really nails the 60's soul jazz vibe. The head on "good juice" is really catchy and infectious. Gigging: Crumar Mojo 61, Hammond SKPro Home: Vintage Vibe 64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
