Day Ninety-One for the album
Recording:
'The return of the Black Zonga' (SI on take 1)
One-eyed Jack - 14:30-17:00 - P: Yann. Present: Dude, Yann.

First of all, this is the very first recording session that took place in Yann's new place: The Lion's Den. Then it was the one and only session we ever did for the album in year 2004 ! Could you believe that ? In fact, it hasn't been possible before that, because Yann had to work in his house for a very long time. This session went really fine. We did the bass and guitars for the intro of 'The return of the black zonga' (including the little slide guitar line).

WEDNESDAY 29th DECEMBER 2004

Recording: 'If I fell' (take 1)
One-eyed Jack - morning - P: Dude. Present Dude, Val.

Almost a month after the accident, I still haven't got my car back, but I grabbed a guitar for the first time and did my parts for 'If I fell': one take of guitar, and two takes of John's vocal part. Later Val added her great singing to that song.

FRIDAY 19th NOVEMBER 2004

Recording: 'There's a place'
One-eyed Jack - morning - P: Dude.

Quickly doing this simple version of this great John Lennon song.

WEDNESDAY 1st DECEMBER 2004

Recording: 'Happy xmas (war is over)'
One-eyed Jack - morning - P: Dude.

The day after my car accident, I quickly recorded the basics for this "all-star" cover for YSn. I did one take of acoustic guitar, and I sang the first verse. Later on in the day I couldn't feel my hands and arms and neck anymore and I had to go to the doctor. I finished my part for the song just in time. Later on in the month, I recieved addional stuff to put in the pot: parts by Clive, David, Terry, Angelo mysterioso, Fanfan, Jbkiller, Maxsilham and Yann. The cover was published 2 days before Christmas, and was a great success.
