I just got back from Bombay, India!!
I recorded an album there with the amazingly talented songwriter/composer/musician Tushar Parte. What an amazing  experience I will treasure forever! I can see why people say they go
to India and come back enlightened! What wonderful culture they
have! I was blown away by how kind an generous the people are.
Everyone was so concerned about my well-being and if I was happy and comfortable. And I definitely never went hungry! They all wanted to feed me their delicious Indian cuisine! :-) I could go on an on about the people and the culture, but I do want to tell you about the
album!
We recorded LIVE...drums, bass, guitar and vocals (not something that is done much these days...usually it is recorded one track at a time) frankly, that is what I did on my last album. Nothing wrong with
that. But, there was definitely a magic that came from all playing
live together at the same time. I was amazed that we accomplished
this so beautifully! None of us had worked together before ....Tushar
(who I collaborated on this album with) we had done the song "Wine of Consciousness" together, which was the last song on my album, 'Time is Never Wasted'.....but he recorded the tracks there in India...then sent the tracks to me in LA to record my vocals on..then I sent them back to him to mix and master.
So, this album was the first time we worked physically in the same room together. Then on top of that...the bass player (Dominic Fernandes) and drummer (Hamza Kazi) had only chord charts and a rough recording of the song (just guitar and vocals) prior to coming into the studio....often they heard the song we were set to record for the first time THAT DAY and then recorded it! I was amazed....it was like we had been playing these songs together for years, it was truly magical!
We also recorded most of the songs on the old studor analog
tape....if you don't know what that is...that is what they used in the
old days of records, and it is known for it's warm rich tone that
digital recordings just can't capture.
It's not everyday that two writers collaborate an album and have it be good let alone magical....as it was with me and Tushar!  I can't wait for you to hear it!  It is set to release in January 2009, so just a few more months!
I will post a song from the album for you to hear as soon as it is available.  Right now 'Rainy Day' is posted....a song of mine that I recorded with a gifted producer, Keven Brennan...he also does most of the instrumentation on the song as well.  We also did "Calloused Heart" together.  Both of those songs are available to download through the SnoCap store on my site http://www.janeenleah.com
Talk soon!
