CALIFORNIA DREAMIN'
(Demo)
Another demo from Joe
Osborn's
studio, circa 1968. This one, however, is on the one 4-track that Joe gave to
me. Even though the most important ingredient on tape, the lead, is on its own
track, the bass, piano, drums and string machine were all bounced to another
track, leaving two open; for what, I can't remember. As a result, in 1999, we
transferred the 4-track to 48-track and redid everything, including my electric
piano solo. I finally got around to putting real strings on the track instead of
those on the Chamberlain Music Master that was on the demo. This is one of my
favorite tracks on this collection. Karen, at 18, is a marvel. I especially like
the way she jumps an octave, from chest voice, to head voice on the letter (and
note) "A" in the opening.
