FROM
THE ALBUM - DIVING FOR PEARLS PRODUCED BY IAIN McKINNA - VIXEN
RECORDS
Iain
"Produced prior to the computer installation at Offbeat
this album of songs was recorded on 2x ADAT - 8 track recorders
using an ATARI 1040 computer with Cubase for the programmed
parts. The tracks were established using Allie's fantastic acoustic
guitar skills along with a basic drum pattern. The drums were
eventually replaced and Dave Haswell's percussion added realism.
All tracks except Joe Louis were recorded as an album, the featured
track was recorded before the album work commenced and was released
as a single. The completed album was highly acclaimed.
A
follow up instrumental acoustic guitar based album is currently
underway, due for release in 2008".
The
new album of acoustic guitar tracks played by this versatile
and accomplished artist is currenlty being produced at the Offbeat
studio in 2008. Guests on the new album include Ron Shaw (Cello)
Frank Usher (guitar), Fraser Spiers on harmonica and Neil Warden
on nylon string acoustic guitar. Rod Clements from Lindisfarne
has guested on Allie's new album playing slide guitar on four
tracks.
