So I'm finally making good on that post a while ago to record something... anything... new. A while ago I tried recording this older song, but just couldn't get the feeling right. Sure, I could play it live, but why not take the time and try to put it to a real click track for some stability? The problem is, I couldn't play it to a click. Something was odd and I didn't want to take the time to figure it out. It then was pushed to the back of the pile.

I dug it up again tonight and tried recording a drum track first and that exposed the issue: one bar of 5/4 in the intro. After fixing the meter track, everthing kind of fell into place. I got a decent drum track down that complimented the keyboard part and then had a good time laying down the keyboard part. I tried to track it up, but liked the two-track better.

I don't know what I was thinking when I named the song "Theme le Creme". It must been out of frustration during the first recording attempt.
