Mick
Pini Band - It Ain't easy / Drum
Solo
Recorded 2006 at 'The Mill Arts Centre Banbury'. Two Tracks from a real
blues master, I saw Mick about six months after I sent the recording
of the show to him, 'hey Mick how's it going, did you like the mix',
he said 'do you want to buy a cd, it's got your name on', I though I'd
better buy one or maybe just give him the tenner to get his teeth fixed.
Guitar mic setup, front mic is a sennheisser e609 and I think a shure
sm57 on the rear of the cab.
