Pistol Long Eye

Never Mind About Behind Blue Eyes What About the Recording Studio?

Okay folks listen up today I have an interesting question for you.

Can anyone tell me and then argue logically possibly the top five greatest historical and technological innovations within the music industry?

Surely there would be the usual suspects, the Beatles, Elvis Rolling Stones Motown possibly, Brit Pop even and who could forget the great rock 'n roll swindle of the 70s that was the Sex Pistols but what about delving slightly behind the scenes?

How about thinking slightly differently as I say and stopping to think about some of the technological innovations that made the recording of the music possible?

OK over the years music and rubber have possibly not been the most glamorous of bedfellows and can at times of conjure up quite a lot of dubious images but let's be serious for a few minutes.

At this point most people will probably be laughing or sniggering at the back and thinking what on earth is he going on about but if you let me develop idea further you will see there is some credibility to it and more than meets the eye.

OK the basic logic behind this premise is as follows. It doesn't matter who you are, what you've recorded and what magnum opus have just recorded it's not going to amount too much if people aren’t able to listen to it properly.

OK, joking aside, this argument has a lot more logic and substance to it than you would normally think Yes in the entire pantheon of "musical rock 'n roll fame etc then acoustic foam doesn't possibly initially rank up there with other such developments such as Marshall amplification, SSL recording desks etc but there is not a recording studio anywhere in the world that does not have acoustic foam jammed into every nook, cranny and crevice

So, once again, lets hear it for Acoustic Foam!

The bottom line here is that it doesn’t matter how good your music is, how talented the band or singers are, if you can’t get your music out to the people then you might as well not be there.

As I said, at this point, enter stage left, Acoustic Foam.

Most recording studios in the world are located within some forms of urban location. OK I know there are the exceptions that prove the rule etc like Compass Point, Nassau, George Martin’s former place at Montserrat before the Volcano kindly caused them to move (proof if ever there was needed that foam rubber can’t solve everything) and Virgins Manor Studios but by and large most studios are located in the mist of urban sprawls.

Take London for instance, you have Air Studios in Oxford Street, You used to have (if it is still there) Virgins Townhouse studios in Goldhawk Road and of course EMI’s grand old lady of them all, Abbey Road Studios in…..Abbey Road.

Now, how long do you think these places would have lasted if they had succeeded in permanently annoying the neighbours? About five minutes I reckon knowing some of the neighbours that these places have and so noise reduction is right up there with a decent recording deck.

So folks, if you have finished laughing. I reckon that Acoustic Foam that makes the largest part of internal noise reduction systems is pretty vital?

I rest my case.

Thank you and good night

Pistol $12.99 Pistol is more than the biography of a ballplayer. It's the stuff of classic novels: the story of a boy transformed by his father's dream -- and the cost of that dream. Even as Pete Maravich became Pistol Pete -- a basketball icon for baby boomers -- all the Maraviches paid a price. Now acclaimed author Mark Kriegel has brilliantly captured the saga of an American family: its rise, its apparent ruin, and, finally, its redemption. Almost four decades have passed since Maravich entered the national consciousness as basketball's boy wizard. No one had ever played the game like the kid with the floppy socks and shaggy hair. And all these years later, no one else ever has. The idea of Pistol Pete continues to resonate with young people today just as powerfully as it did with their fathers. In averaging 44.2 points a game at Louisiana State University, he established records that will never be broken. But even more enduring than the numbers was the sense of ecstasy and artistry with which he played. With the ball in his hands, Maravich had a singular power to inspire awe, inflict embarrassment, or even tell a joke. But he wasn't merely a mesmerizing showman. He was basketball's answer to Elvis, a white Southerner who sold Middle America on a black man's game. Like Elvis, he paid a terrible price, becoming a prisoner of his own fame. Set largely in the South, Kriegel's Pistol, a tale of obsession and basketball, fathers and sons, merges several archetypal characters. Maravich was a child prodigy, a prodigal son, his father's ransom in a Faustian bargain, and a Great White Hope. But he was also a creature of contradictions: always the outsider but a virtuoso in a team sport, an exuberant showman who wouldn't look you in the eye, a vegetarian boozer, an athlete who lived like a rock star, a suicidal genius saved by Jesus Christ. A renowned biographer -- People magazine called him "a master" -- Kriegel renders his subject with a style that is, by turns, heartbreaking, lyrical, and electric. The narrative begins in 1929, the year a missionary gave Pete's father a basketball. Press Maravich had been a neglected child trapped in a hellish industrial town, but the game enabled him to blossom. It also caused him to confuse basketball with salvation. The intensity of Press's obsession initiates a journey across three generations of Maraviches. Pistol Pete, a ballplayer unlike any other, was a product of his father's vanity and vision. But that dream continues to exact a price on Pete's own sons. Now in their twenties -- and fatherless for most of their lives -- they have waged their own struggles with the game and its ghosts. Pistol is an unforgettable biography. By telling one family's history, Kriegel has traced the history of the game and a large slice of the American narrative.

The Pistol Poets $6.99 The Edgar-nominated author of Gun Monkeys is back with a thrill-a-minute suspense novel that mixes crime and academia—with hilarious results. Here Victor Gischler draws us into a wild and wicked world, where tenured professors are busy burying bodies, cash-up-front P.I.’s hunt for missing coeds and one desperate street-tough has to decide which he’d rather be: a live poet or a dead criminal. An unlucky grad student just got himself killed in a robbery gone bad. And as lowly drug lieutenant Harold Jenks races with the killer out of the alley, a light goes off in his head: He’ll steal the dead kid’s identity. Now Jenks, who once lorded it over seven square blocks in East St. Louis, is headed due west. With a .32 in his pocket, a 9mm Glock taped across his back, and a rap sheet nearly as long as Finnegans Wake, he’s cruising the halls of academia as Eastern Oklahoma U’s newest grad student, looking for action and hoping he can stay one couplet ahead of his violent past. While this new bad boy on campus makes mincemeat of his metaphors, across campus visiting professor Jay Morgan has a more pressing problem: What to do about the dead coed in his bed. The professor’s no killer, but try telling that to private eye Deke Stubbs. With the professor on the lam and Stubbs hot on his trail, more trouble blows into town. Now, as St. Louis drug boss Red Zach and his minions converge on Fumbee, Oklahoma, looking for a consignment of missing cocaine, the bullets start flying faster than the zingers at a faculty hate fest. For Morgan and Jenks, now desperate fugitives from poetic justice, survival means learning new skills—and learning fast. Because if they find out they’re bottom-of-the-class, that means they’re already dead. Featuring the sleaziest, sorriest, and most captivating group of criminal lowlifes, sexed-up academics, poets, and rappers ever to collide in one crime novel, The Pistol Poets speeds deliriously to its electrifying payoff. From the Hardcover edition.

Gears of War 3: C.O.G Snub Pistol Precision Prop Replica $399.99 There's blood in your mouth. The flecks of metallic splatter escape the convulsing skull of a Locust brute as you power the gnashing spin of rusted blades through his howling face. Does its blood taste like your chainsaw or is that the taste of the brute's crude chrome finish? The toughest part is at the base of the neck. It's surprising your saw doesn't give up half way through. It takes a moment to re-grip and drive down, and in that moment, the renewed sound of howling Locusts floods your ears. You shove the butt of the gun just under the crook of your right arm and reach for your Snub Pistol. There she is. A quick kiss on her barrel and it's over the shoulder, the corner of your eye running the length of her pristine body. You'd take a moment and marvel at her, but she's got work to do, and it'd be rude to think she's got the time. Breathing down the digitized neck of Marcus Fenix is the closest you'll ever get to feeling the shredding torque of blood-stained steel clawing its way through Locust flesh.
