The making of the new Toucans album

Steel Drum Buffet

Lead Pan Overdubs

Page 3 of 15

When we recorded the album, we left some of the spaces where we normally take solos open, so that we could avoid ruining a good take of a song with some lame improvisations. On some of the songs, we had solo sections that had been carefuly worked out live, and in those cases, we just played the song as we do normally.

But on a few songs, we really wanted the solos to be something special, and having the entire live session in ProTools allowed us to do that with ease. Here you can see Toucan Rob laying down a hot solo on the song "Bacchanal Lady".
