Interesting quote from non other than Paul McCartny....Musicians wanting to be recorded take note!.... PaulMcCartney: Do you think having that focus and discipline - because you only have a short moment of time – is better than having countless tracks and days or even weeks to record? Paul: Yeah, much better. You would go in, start recording at 10.30am and by 1.30pm you were expected to have finished two songs completely. So you know, there’d be two songs each morning, lunch break, two songs in the afternoon. Very productive. And it was great, it was very exciting because nowadays… I’ve just done some mixing, and a lot of it is just sitting, waiting for the computer to digest the data. You know, the little line filling up. And you watch it! I always try and do something [laughs]… But you watch it like it’s important! Loading slowly. Like yeah, do something! And it makes me remember, ‘God, it was so exciting!’ Just [shouts] ‘Do it! Do it!’ And you moved real quick and you got great results that are still played. And some of them sound very contemporary still. But they were done [clicks fingers] in a flash, which made it exciting, productive and intense! But that’s what you wanted. That’s what you were in it for, it was great!
