Good Records got a visit from Bishop Allen on Sunday - a kind gesture to all the good people of Dallas who didn't want to drive up to Denton to see them on Saturday night. Another great set from Bishop Allen - and in many ways the quieter, in-store set up at Good Records was even more enjoyable then seeing them in rock mode, in Denton.
This ended up as a matrix recording - combining two different recordings, one that captured the vocals, keyboards and acoustic instruments through the mixing console, and a second using audience mics to get the "room" sound. Since the drums, electric guitars, and the bass weren't mic'ed this was the best way to ensure the recording actually sounded like the bands performance.
I think it came out pretty well - let me know what you think. And on a side note, this may quite possibly be one of the loveliest versions of Butterfly Nets I've heard yet.
Enjoy.

this is really cool. just sayin' i would get the room mic higher in the mix. i'm loving it though. thanks.
Wow, I cant wait to listen. Just got home from a week out of town and what a surprise! a great job as always...
Hi, I like the mp3s, I was just wondering if you would go to the Mom/Voot Cha Index show on the 15th of August at the Granada Theater and record it. I really like your recordings and Voot Cha index doesn't have any mp3s and they are breaking up so I would be very happy if you had some to post.
thanks!! always love some bishop allen.
