STUDIO NEWS PART 2 – DAY 7 | PICTURES HERE
30th April, 2007


Today started with the usual hearty breakfast and Mike kindly bringing in the papers. Trevor turned up about 11.30am and we started on one of Phil’s songs with the harmony parts. In the end it sounded fantastic and is chock full of the Heep trademarks.



We then moved on to all the harmony parts of Trevor’s songs and have spent most of the day doing that and they have really come out well. Bernie tonight is doing a lead vocal on one of Trevor’s and I guess that will be it for tonight. Tomorrow we go back to the template of a lead vocal first and then a couple of guitar solos and then another lead vocal after dinner.

It was a lovely sunny day today but I still haven’t had my walk in the countryside as there is always so much to do either singing, playing guitar or running the bands office on my lap top. No peace for the wicked as they say! Russell and Carly went home tonight as all the harmony parts are complete. He did a great job and we have some powerhouse Heep harmony vocals recorded.

The girl in the kitchen in the above picture with the dress on is called Harriet (I hope I spelt that right)  “wait for it “ Potter! I kid you not. She has been cooking and looking after us since we arrived along with Louise who is the wife of Andy who owns the Chapel! Carly was actually reading the latest Harry Potter book while she was here. Now what are the chances of that. Spooky or what!

Bernie has that vocal under wraps and so it has been a long hard day but an incredibly productive and satisfying one. Time to relax and we will see you tomorrow.
