Good Monday Morning, after some very long days last week we finished song number 3 and I am very excited about the direction it took. Yesterday we were able to catch up on some well deserved sleep. Today we are digging deep into song number 4. Mike just finish a slamming drum take and we are setting up to start recording Billy's parts. As we move forward toward the light at the end of the tunnel time seems to be accelerating. I have not had the time to update the blog as much as would like. I hope you enjoy the video and photos. The amazing photos posted today were taken by Kristin Burns please visit her website at www.kristinburns.com Have a great day. xo K.B.
It's getting more and more exciting ! Thanks Kerry !
ReplyDeletefinally, thanks kerry
ReplyDeletea daily blog is a big commitment. don't worry about leaving people waiting, otherwise it will become a chore. that being said, i love the updates, so thank you <3
ReplyDeleteI agree with merveilleuse. You are so busy and so if you skip a couple days, it's not a big deal. :) I am so happy things are going well. Love you guys! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update, looks and sounds great. Plus, it's really fun to be able to follow the recording process, even in these small amounts. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteCan I just ask you all of my studio related questions when you get home?
ReplyDeleteLove you Ronji. We will hang when I get back... I am hoping to answer the question this week. God I need more time... don't we all?
ReplyDeleteYou're doing a *FANTASTIC* job, Kerry :) Don't worry about skipping a day every now and then. Witnessing this whole process is priceless!
ReplyDeleteGreat! is "song for a son" the song number 4?
ReplyDeleteThose photos are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteOh man, Oh man, Oh man, A Song for a Son!
I <3 this blog. xo
ReplyDeletegreat blog...as already noted, don't worry 'bout it daily....keep it fun:)
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping that I will like all of the music as much as it sounds like I'll like this song. Thanks for the updates, I'm enjoying it and I keep checking back every day and this and also Everything From Here To There has me really pumped, excited, and above all, inspired.
ReplyDeleteNice. Looks just like my Rhodes, except that mine is white.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite instruments of all time.
I love the beginning of "Song For A Son". It sounds fantastic! We all really can't thank you guys enough for keeping us filled in all the time. I mean- doing the whole recording process is enough on your plate, I'm sure, and to add onto that all of these internet updates? It's amazing! Thank you, again, and Teargarden by Kaleidyscope sounds like it will be a great success. I can't wait!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Take your time on answering our questions, seriously. We would rather you spend quality time making the songs rather than using it for the video blog. Happy recording!
Keep posting!!!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward for the new songs.
SONG FOR A SON!
ReplyDeleteI love what I'm hearing so far. Haven't been this into a band/album/concept in quite awhile.
ReplyDeleteAnd will blogs stop identifying me as titles from my Google Books library? Embarrassing ...
I'm so jealous you guys are living the dream.. The music will be fantastic, I can feel it. A couple more weeks and we might have some music. WOOO :)
ReplyDeleteC
Why are you kidding yourselves?
ReplyDeleteThis song is so average.The Spirits in the Sky performance of it is less than average.
The die-hards once again rush to proclaim how great it is but they'll turn up if you play a polka to give you a false sense of security while everyone else has stayed away.
You are their Emperor and these songs are your new clothes.
I can't remember the last time I was this excitied about a album/songs coming out, must have been the early ninties at least. Thanks so much Kerry for the daily blog. Is such a pleasure to log in and have a gander at before bed each day (New Zealand Time). Keep fighting the good fight, we are all so excited!
ReplyDeleteThis song is one of the best Billy has written imo! It feels so pure.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kerry, for the effort you put into this blog. I agree with those above me; don't worry about constant updates. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteSeria chevere un intro asi para la cancion "song for a son" el pequeño baterista se pone la capucha como Billy, que lindo!! y se la quita cuando lo ve ooooohhhh
ReplyDelete"A Song for a Son" is an amazing track.. unreal.. proves that Billy's writting skills are alive. hope that song will be on "Teargarden by Kaleidyscope". just amazing. live version of it sounds amazing
ReplyDeleteSkateboarders have your back Billy! Billy should skateboard! http://royalskateboardtruck.com/mike_mo_capaldi.html
ReplyDeleteThat really is a fucking amazing sound. I hope that makes it onto the recording with prevalence.
ReplyDelete@lost fan. You're so negative. Fucking... the mighty SP is TOTALLY back on track from what I've heard recently. I am very positive about the future of the smashing pumpkins!
ReplyDeletenot trying to be a dick, could someone switch the snares off, thanks
ReplyDeleteIs it really that cold in the studio? Ysanne Spevack is really crouched by that heater...or at least I think that's a heater.
ReplyDeletetonight tonight
ReplyDeleteFleetwood Mac
in Ahoy Rotterdam
cant wait
love the mac
As for the music, how can anyone be sure that this is actually the component of a particular song? I just thought Billy was noodling around on the keys.
ReplyDeleteIt's a component of Song for a Son, and people know that by.... listening to the song. What happened to updates everyday? Too good to be true, as usual. Soon, once a week will be too much, and then this blog will simply go away. As will the vision of 44 songs.
ReplyDeletewould you prefer an unbelievable mind-blowing record or a DAILY blog without any content? Ryan......seacrest?
ReplyDeleteGood call.... I repent. Bad day, sorry!
ReplyDeleteLove it! I just received the "A Song For A Son" email earlier,listened to it, and then heard it's beginnings on the piano on this post. Thanks for sharing moments like this. This kind of shizzle means a lot to fans! :)
ReplyDeletewhen will you come in France SP? Im eager to listen to you in live T_T
ReplyDeleteand I'm waitin to shadow land...
ReplyDeletevery radical. i'm a big fan of the Rhodes sound. very cool tone with the phase shifter involved. yum.
ReplyDeleteMike looks adorable! And he's wearing a shirt from Hollister! Whodathunk that a big alt rock band would be wearing the fashion of middle-school girls? :)
ReplyDeleteKB ... come find me when you have a spare 30 seconds. In the usual place. <3 moonbaby.
ReplyDeleteCant wait for them to sail me away!!
ReplyDeleteI love the beautiful melodic piercing clarity. It's almost as if this music always existed in a timeless way. strangely Platonic. A very small annoyance in the lyrics is that we sailors use charts not maps.
ReplyDeletegetting more and more exciting.
