MP3 of The Web by my old band Slish.

MP3 of My God Is A Woman, by my old band, Slish

E-mail that I wrote to my buddy, Chuck:

You know, I’ve actually recorded at the Record Plant. Song is attached. (taken from cassette. The master sounded like God.)

Was my band “Slish”.
Michael Urbano (Smashmouth/Cracker/Cheryl Crow/John Haytt/Third (That guy is, by far, the best drummer I’ve ever played with. And try NOT to tap your feet to this! Dude is a hit maker)
Guitarists were me and David Immergluck (Counting Sheep, I mean Counting Crows.) I played slide.
Bass was my friend Bean, I sang, he sang backup, and we wrote the song together.

It’s about getting off drugs.
This band could have been huge. Except Bean and I were fresh off drugs, insane, and fought so much we drove everyone around us away.

was 1995.
God I love this song. Called “Supergoose”. Could have been a number-one hit. Commercial and great enough, but still fucking weird as hell.

We recorded these three songs in one day at the Record Plant, the day before Metallica locked it out for a year. Then did ovedubs elsewhere, some anon studio I forget the name of.

Was mixed at Hyde Street (By Michael Rosen, the guy who engineers Rancid’s records).
Was mastered at some other little home studio. That was the first time I ever saw a computer used to edit an audio file. We cut four bars out of the middle eight to make it more radio friendly.
Now that’s all I do, all day long, every day.

p/s regarding “…That was the first time I ever saw a computer used to edit an audio file.”

The edit we did? We cut four bars out of the middle eight to make it more radio friendly.
