Hey List members,
Any body who knows anything about mixing will know that mixing live records.
In live I mean with real time drummers is really hard. Because they do not
keep time like a sampled beat does. So Andy's mixing on that CD is really
good considering the range of old records he is playing. I played with him
when he came to Seattle. He is good and so is Geoff Barrow.

Peace DJ Nasir (Sweet Mother Records)
