Which might be the reason why I often am disappointed by the sound he got for Mitch Mitchell on a lot of those Hendrix records.
I agree - a great song is much much more important than drum sound ever will be. Still it doesn't hurt to have a recording that enhances impact instead of detracting from it. Anyway - usually great drummers equate to great sounds though a lot more than great kits do.
 I haven't seen toms with flared bottoms like that before.
Like Alex Van Halen meets Salvador Dali. Who makes those??
The easiest thing to do is the thing most easily forgotten.
North drums i do believe.
What did you want them to sound like, the Eagles?
On those Hendrix sessions, if he had spent any more time on the drums he would have captured a different moment--and that would have been a tragic shame.
ugh, ummm errr NO! Geez - not even the Eagles should ever have to sound like the Eagles.
Not so sure this would have been the case. And to me it actually is a nice thing we'll never know - those records are what they are and are indeed "classics".
and Eddie was certainly up against some technical & time limitations that weren't under his control for some of those sessions.
Don't get me wrong - I truly love all the Experience Records - Electric Ladyland is a desert island record of mine for sure. But I still don't go to the Experience records for examples of a recording that contains my favorite "drum sounds"
Obviously - OMMV.
Hee hee - yup - them's the ones.
of Eddie Kramer...
i find that most of the time spent on drums is taken up before i put a mic near the kit (unless the drummer has his/her dums sorted out - rattles, tuning, etc). it usually takes me 1/2 hour to an hour from the time i start micing up, depending on what technique i'm using.
Axis: Bold As Love has some really good drum sounds, in my opinion.
Yeah, seriously. I would go to early Hendrix for certain awesome drum sounds. "Fire". "Hey Joe". The way the snare fill goes into the kick drum over "I gave her the gun- I shot her!" on that last song is one of the wonders of sound for me. Of course I listen to that one off an old steamboat three-color Reprise-label vinyl record, which is kinda good at presenting the things we like about analog... vibe for days, for years...

DotNetNuke 5.6.0 introduced a new feature that automatically creates Portal Aliases as they are needed. This feature is great for people who are developing a new site, or who are changing the domain of their site. Unfortunately there were some unintended consequences that came with this new feature. The new Automatic Portal Alias feature can interfere with custom code that is not in the traditional locations for module content.
Prior to 5.6.0 if no matching Portal Alias could be located and the request was not for Default.aspx, DotNetNuke would stop trying to process the request and just “let ASP.Net handle it”. With the introduction of the Automatic Portal Alias feature in 5.6.0 DotNetNuke no longer passed unrecognized requests to ASP.Net, but rather tried to create a valid Portal Alias for them. This change meant that various bits of custom code that are deployed in the web site, but that DotNetNuke is not explicitly aware of stopped working.
DotNetNuke 5.6.2 fixes this problem by restoring the “let ASP.Net handle it” behaviour. Because the “let ASP.Net handle it” behaviour and automatic portal alias creation disagree about what to do with an unrecognized request, the Automatic Portal Alias creation must be disabled to restore the “let ASP.Net handle it” behaviour. There is a check box in the Portal Alias section of Site Settings to Enable/Disable Automatic Portal Aliases. Automatic Portal Alias creation is always disabled on a multiple portal installation.
UrlRewriter also avoids processing certain requests and hands them directly to ASP.Net for completion out side of DotNetNuke. Previously these requests were all hard coded, 5.6.2 introduces the OmitFromRewriteProcessing host setting. When the end of the path portion of the URL (path only not query parameters etc.) matches one of the strings in this list then DotNetNuke will also “let ASP.Net handle it”. Currently this feature is meant for use by developers, there is no UI available for this setting, it can only be accessed by the Host Settings API methods.
For most of his adult life, Tracy Hicks worked in an air-conditioned office and made a comfortable salary. Now he works all day in the Texas heat and his income is uncertain—and he couldn’t be happier.
Tracy owns Hicks Fencing Company, a Georgetown business that does masonry and fencing for residences and ranches. But Williamson County residential clients make up about 85 percent of the company’s business, especially building privacy fences, ornamental steel fences, stone walkways, stone patios, and stone flowerbed borders.
As a small-business owner, Tracy says the thing that tickles him most is his freedom to create the kind of environment he wants to work in. He decides the quality control and he sets the bar high. He chooses the workers who adhere to his standards of courtesy and professionalism. He works long hours, but things get done right.
“I want to treat every job as if it were mine—my house, my fence. I think that’s important,” he says.
Tracy launched the company in December, and so far it’s built in excess of 80 fences this year. He says all but one of those clients would happily refer him to others. And, even though he knew he did nothing wrong for the one customer, it still bothers him today.
In the fencing business, “there are a thousand ways to cut corners, and if you’re not out there watching, you won’t know,” Tracy says. For example, if a worker sets a post one foot deep instead of two, “it won’t show when you’re done,” he says. But in a few years, the shoddy workmanship will reveal itself.
That kind of honesty does have a slight down side. “I’m not the cheapest guy,” he admits. At the same time no job is too small. “My goal is to give my customer what they pay for by using quality materials and applying superior workmanship.
A native Texan, Tracy grew up building fences in his hometown, Brenham. When he got out of the Navy, he took a job as a machinist working for a company that manufactured down-hole oil tool parts. He says he was a ringer, though—he got the job because he’s a good baseball player and the company team needed a good player for an upcoming state tournament.
Tracy worked his way up in the industry, and soon found himself as a partner and manager, but he got sick of traveling between his company’s major headquarters in Canada and Houston. After eight years in Houston, he and his wife Marlene, a teacher at Old Town Elementary, found a way to move to Georgetown. He also has a son Trey, who attends Georgetown High School.
Last year, Tracy became interested in managing a local fence company, and started the job in July. But it didn’t take long for him to see that he disagreed with its principles and values. That’s when he decided to launch Hicks Fencing Company.
His business operates with three crews. One crew does masonry, one does residential fencing work, and the third does ranch-style fencing. As an officer in past companies, Tracy says he’s hired and fired hundreds of people, and he’s developed a pretty good gut feel about who will work within the culture he’s building.
His crewmembers work hard despite the heat, and follow certain rules of conduct. They mustn’t leave trash on the property. They must be courteous and respectful to customers, which includes watching their language and conversations.
“If you’ve got your kid playing in the yard and you hear some guy out there talking, you don’t want to think, ‘I don’t want my kid around that guy,’” explains Tracy.
With current population trends, Hicks Fencing has a pretty good chance of meeting that success. Williamson County is one of the fastest-growing counties in the nation, while the Austin area continues to expand too. New homes need new fences. At the same time, old fences need to be replaced.
Tracy’s still early in his business life cycle, and he’s still building a network of Georgetown relationships, through his
