We did it. We edited nine songs in two half days !. I think that is a very good result. There were some important decisions to make, but all in all we just played very well indeed. I think it will be a great CD.
Actually I think it is my first live-CD ever. That calls for champagne! I never dared to do it before this one. Afraid something might go irreparably wrong. Now I would have wanted more recordings to be live recordings. Jazz is music of the moment, and you just get this one time to play it right. If you get this moment on tape it is really magical. I think we did a good job with this one. There are definitely some magical moments on it. Sometimes I was smiling inside when I heard back what we did. That doesn't happen too often, actually.
Now it is a matter of backing up everything as safe as possible. Wouldn't want to do it all over again. My Time Machine is running, the USB stick is loading with the edited files and I already have a back up on my harddisk. That should be enough.
After that we are going to the next step: mixing the edited tracks. I will keep you updated.
