This song was recorded at Audio Recording, Inc. in Seattle by legendary engineer, Kearney Barton (who recorded The Kingsmen “Jolly Green Giant” of “Louie, Louie” fame, The Sonics “Psycho”, The Frantics “Werewolf”, and many others.) It was an 8 track analog studio, recorded onto 1 inch reel tape.
This song features me playing an old no name classical acoustic guitar. You could use the guitar for a rowing oar since it was so beat up. I still have the guitar to this day since it's so sturdy. My brother Jim gave it to me after getting it from a friend of his. There was a bit of trickery involved in the final mix that I did at my home studio. Though the performance is acceptable at best (I recorded it before I had the experience of finger picking) there was one major mistake that was off time as I hit a wrong note. I never did go back to it to correct, but now it's the digital age, and I went back and “fixed” it, so now it's more presentable.
To finish off this particular mix, I had to convert it from a cassette format onto the Audacity program on my computer with a JVC TD-W254 Double Cassette Deck 3 motor Silent Mechanism.
This is the 304th song on my list. It's actually a response to one of my own songs called TRADEWIND where it's all guitar work only, but that was performed on an electric guitar. I wanted a song that was an instrumental on a classical, nylon string acoustic guitar only.


Recorded at Audio Recording, Inc. in Seattle, WA.

The Santairs Auburn, Washington

I am a musician, singer, and songwriter doing this part-time but have been doing it all my life. I started singing before I could talk at the age of one, and wrote my first real song at 15 years of age. (If you count avant-garde as a song, then the age would be 7.) I currently own my own recording studio; and I write, perform, and record my own music (and other's from time to time.) I am Santairs. ... more
