I used to like it a lot, but it's not really one of my favourites from a "my work" point of view. I love the music and the band of course, but I think given a bit more time and with today's technology, I could have probably done a much better job. I know that if I had been using a computer - based multitrack recording format like Pro Tools (which sadly didn't exist at that time) I could have got around all sorts of technical issues that came up during the recording and compiling prior to the mix, where we had to ship ADAT tapes around the globe to get additional work done on the stuff. We had all sorts of timing problems trying to get those ADATs to sync back up to the original multitracks, due to the huge number of tape edits on the master tapes (over 70 I think) where the ADATs would lose sync and misbehave.
Still, that being said, we did get it done. I just feel that if I had the chance to do the same album today I'd do a lot of things rather differently.

You can hear all the instruments equally clearly which is great cos they're all doing their own thing... Are you doing the next album by them???
