Some of my favourite pieces are his although not from the westerns.

Whilst it wasn’t a deliberate move, Tony is full of respect and admiration for the composer The sound as noted above has a feel of Ennio Morricone about it and the old spaghetti westerns. He has all of these boxes in the studio and he knows what will work together, he joins them all up and in joining up all the components he gives you what what he thinks is going to be the right sound. He set up the studio and was plugging guitars into cabs and speakers instead of just into the board which gave it a great rich sound, just like playing live really. I got a 1947 Gibson Southern Jumbo (these start at £2,700 with some older models valued at over £40,000 – contrast that with Millie’s Harmony which sells second hand for around £300).Įdwyn is an absolute whiz. I think it improves the playing on the album. When you’re playing in the studio, I think it plays even better. I think Millie chose one called a Harmony Sovereign and played that. It’s like a museum which is usually full of things that say, “Do not touch” on them. In addition to the production that we were able to get just the way we wanted it, there is also this amazing collection of guitars that you’re able to use. We recorded a lot of the album at the Clashnarrow Studio in Helmsdale, the town on the Sutherland coast in Scotland.
Yep yep yep song professional#
Imagine we’re at this point in the process and there’s a fork in the road, that professional modern sound is down that way but we want to go down that way instead. But where we were at, we knew that it just wouldn’t work for us. It sounded really like an up to date modern sounding album which normally would have been great. TW: With the first mix, it sounded really professional. It was key therefore that the production and engineering reflected the sound and vibe that Tony was trying to achieve. The album has a certain earthy, real feel to it, it’s the sound of a working man making an honest album about things he believes in.
Maybe Tony is our own anti-hero, the man with no name from the North of England (except of course we know his name before anyone comments!). We had the opportunity to speak to Tony in advance of his upcoming UK tour about the new album, how he manages to produce something that covers a wealth of difficult subjects yet still manages to feel uplifting and how, to these ears, the album has a hint of Ennio Morricone to it at times.
