The Great Post Mortem Begins ..

So. Yes. Finally the dust has settled, the CD is now out and we’re all breathing deep sighs of relief and wondering where we go next. And for yours truly, its time to have a good think about the approaches we took and what we (and by we, I mean I) have learnt and would do differently next time….

Lets start by rewinding to the beginning. I play guitar with Nottingham rock band Skeleton Crew. We are a 5 piece band that play “classic rock” original material. Since our inception we have developed a strong local following and play live regularly at reasonably high-profile gigs. In late November 2007 we decided to record our first full-length CD, and despite some local management interest offering us money/studio time we decided we would rather have a go at doing it off our own backs. You can listen to the results of our hard work on our website, www.skeletoncrewrocks.com.

You can use the "post mortem" labels to filter out just the analysis posts, and the "recording" labels to filter ... you guessed it, the recording posts ...
