The Elephant In The Recording Booth

This song gives me an anxiety attack every time I open it up. It's a wall of sound. Last time i counted there were

14 drum tracks
1 Bass track
6 guitar tracks
2 string tracks
1 organ track
1 lead vocal
4 lead vocal doubles
6 background tracks from Julie
4 background tracks by me

all submixed into a rough form. It only took 6 months and two versions of Logic, and two operating systems (Tiger and Leopard)

Drums by dennis; julie and I did the vocal tracks and I played everything else. I finally boiled the production down to 29 tracks with some submixing.
