_ _ Think the first album only cost about 1500 pound or something, you know was done in 10 days all told _
Chaz had quite a valid point.
I mean, you know _
_ _ Time is [Abm] money and you know
The house rising song was done by Mickey Mouse for [E] 10 pounds of $10 [Eb] and its first take
The arrangements of songs I make had been well thought out
The the sequence of songs had been well thought out before Noel and Mitch ever heard them _
_ Having said that Nolan Mitchell very
_ _ _ _ They really had what tuned in to deliver it.
I mean we recorded I give an example of wind cries Mary
_ _ We recorded that song at the Lian Lee
There was 20 minutes left before the clock stopped on the studio table.
I know I'm more to do
He's written the song that just the night before we've been sitting written on writing the song and I said why don't we just?

It was out number three record [Eb] the moon flare.
[E] _
[Am] I
Think it's a tribute not [Eb] only to [E] chances _
[F] _ _ Ideas of [Ab] being out of poor song [F] from Jimmy and say hey, [Cm] that's good.
Let's do [C]
this
[F] But it's really a tribute to Jimmy and his ability as a great musician to sort of pull the other guys here
come on, here [C] it is hit the chords and
And Mitch and Noel just okay.
That's what it is.
Oh, we got it.
Yeah
_ It was not it was a no-brainer.
[N] I mean you're dealing with a genius for crying out loud
I mean, he's just it's just so obvious.
He was just so _
Able to get into the moment.
Oh, we got 20 minutes.
Oh, how about this song?
Bang?
Let's record it
I think your music is more current as if you're writing it recording it _ on the run as it were and _
_ It takes too much out of your life, I mean I I couldn't work like that.
I know that for sure _
The thought of going at the studio for six months.
Yeah, I would just bang
I would just close the door in my head _ is a real big world out there, you know
And as you write songs as an artist writing a song
_ He wants to be influenced by what's happening that day get it in the can
_ Record it and have the next day's experience right into the song
_ _ And that's how we would do it because Chaz is looking at his watch all the time going.
Come on lads
We've got three four hours to do this.
Let's get it done.
And that's literally how we would record _
