Getting to mix at PLYRZ Studio with the legendary Jim Scott.....well, that changed me completely. I hear music a little differently than I did before. My mixing style changed because of watching Jim work. The studio feels fresh again...and I've been at this now for over 23 years. I feel lucky to be on this adventure.
Here's Jerry's best take on what must be almost indescribable; the making of a beautiful piece of art. There's a few things in it that I thought, "well, that's not exactly how that went down." But it's surely close enough. I'm sure if you spoke with anyone who worked on By The Time Your Rocket Gets To Mars, we would all have a slightly different take. That's one of the interesting things about creating art....you enter into a time and place that you don't necessarily completely understand.
Go out and find this record and have a listen. It's stunningly beautiful and filled to the brim with great Rock and Roll.
