I'd never made a record where people got the whole picture. So the idea was to use people from all the different areas I got into. (Taxi Magazine, May 1989) The main difference for me doing this record was that I had so much more time. Just for that one piece, "Hard Plains Drifter," we spent more time than I've ever spent on a whole record. We spent two or three days playing and then one day mixing. (Downbeat, May 1989, p. 19) |
