I found a really old soundboard recording from way back when.  I threw it up on Dropbox.  I think this was me using the '73 Jazz and the Acoustic 360.

My band just put out a tape (alright, alright, I know, poke yer fun and let's be done with it).  Turned out a lot more punk than expected, probably due to recording it with local punk legend Jimmy Vapid.  

http://lipp.bandcamp.com/

All songs are A Gibson Triumph through a Kustom 100 and Musicman 115RH cab, except Story of a Revolver on which I used my RD Artist (the jack turned out the be wonky so I cut in and out all over the place; think it kinda works that way for the most part so we left it).  Wish I used my EB3 on Work Ethic (and maybe PPCLI<3U), but it was in dire need of a setup and I didn't have enough time before the session.

Definition Of MadMen has a new CD/EP.





Four songs. Two of them are originals.
I used the trusted combination of the Ampeg V4B plus my Gibson Les Paul Bass.
But I dialed in a bit more grit on the Basscreamer.

Very nice... shades of Albert Bouchard with the vocal on Fake...?

We have a bunch of stuff up at www.nancyjohnson.co.uk.  You'll find a download/listen link on the home page. 

We've recorded two full collections (funF and wedgie) and there's a live set up there as well.  I also spent a few days trying to liven up funF as well, so the reboot is up as well.  We got picked up by a small pop/punk label called Punkalicious and hope to have something official out through them at some stage.  They've said that it's OK to have our stuff up until such a time that they say otherwise, so get it for nowt now. 

Cheers
Paul

Albert was their drummer and was mostly responsible for their album Imaginos which, iirc, started life as his solo project...

I definitely agree there's a shade of Albert Bouchard in the vocals on "Don't Fake It"!
That is one angry sounding bass!  :thumbsup:

Just got a new song mixed! 

This is one we've been kicking around for a couple years and the guy who wrote the riff finally came up with lyrics this year.
I'm really liking the bass sound on this.  It's my go-to combination these days: Gibson LPB-1 through a Genz-Benz Shuttle. I took a line out of the Shuttle direct to the recorder (an "old" Metric Halo Mobile IO feeding into Garage Band).

We recorded several songs like this, guerilla-style in our rented rehearsal space - basically just pointed a couple of SM-57s at the guitar amps and another at the snare, put up a couple of SM-81s for overheads and a Beta 52 for the kick;  took the bass direct from my preamp; crammed all that into 8 channels and tracked all the basics live.  I tried to keep my room volume down to avoid overwhelming the toms in the overheads... with mixed success, on some songs the bleed is crazy (and not in a good way).   Guitar solos and vocals were overdubbed later.
Basses: Gibson lpb-1, Gibson dc jr tribute, Greco thunderbird, Danelectro dc, Ibanez blazer.  Amps: genz benz shuttle 6.0, EA CXL110, EA CXL112, Spark 40.  Guitars: Danelectro 59XT, rebuilt cheap LP copy

The CD/EP we've made with Definition Of MadMen features two orginals and two covers.
Here are the two covers that we recorded

One is an oldie from Grand Funk Railroad. We changed a few bits to make it fit in our repertoire.

And the other is a Masters of Reality song, which also got a Definition of Madmen treatment ;-)

i hung a mic over a beam in the basement. the cheapie mic ran to a battery operated cassette deck. the result was pure beauty or really awful depending on who you were. to my ears it sounded like a blues single straight out of 1950's chicago. perfection! ;D
