@Don O tough to say for sure....I’m fairly certain it was the V, into a home brew muff, into my home brew 18watt. Not sure what I boosted the solo with, if anything.(other than software...)

NOW BEFORE THE HATE MAIL STARTS let me say I played the Jethro Tull MINSTREL IN THE GALLERY album till the GROOVES WORE OUT! --
I have much respect for Mr Anderson and his unique musings

but DAMN @Thatbastarddon ....really.....that sounds awesome

What Adrian said. Your take on Tull was unique for sure. And that doesn’t make it a bad take. I said to Robert some months back that if you’re covering a song..... make it yours...... you have liberties to put yourself in there. Different story for those groups that call themselves Tribute bands. They’re expected to sound exactly like the original.

As the other guys have already said. You did great!

 

[Session 5]

You Been holding out on us Don, haven't you,

 

[Thatbastarddon]

Thanks @eSGEe @iblive and @Session 5 ! I miss the band thing! This COVID tripe needs to end....so we can get together and make some noise and empty beer cans together.

Sorry to quote you twice @Don O ...after I replied, during my lunch break, I realized that we had spoken about drum mic’ing in another thread. This song was recorded with 8 tracks(would have been 10 if there were backing vocals). The drums were 4 tracks; kick-Audix D6, snare-top only-Audio Technica drum pack snare/tom mic, overheads- matched pair AKG C430 mini SDC mic’s on a short stereo bar, in an X/Y pattern, boomed from the front of the kit, one aimed at the floor toms, the other aimed between the highest tom and hi-hats. The overhead position was chosen to contain bleed from the rest of the band as much as possible.
