The Production of "Dolly Dagger" with Eddie Kramer chords
Start Jamming...
Dolly Dagger probably took
I think he cut it twice.
This is the second time he cut it.
He cut a rough version of it, I think, at the record plant.
And then when the studio was finished and built,
we came in and cut it.
I think the track was cut in one evening, this whole long section.
As you can see, it goes on and on and on.
[Am]
[F#]
[D] Here [B] comes Dolly Dagger
[Am] Well, I'm so [E] happy, [B] gonna make you stagger
What I'm gonna do here is I'm gonna show you
how Dolly Dagger was broken down.
[D] I'll show you how
[Am] it's broken down into bass, [B] drums, [F#] guitar,
Jimmy's basic rhythm guitar.
[D] One of the lead vocal [B] tracks was put on
at the same time as the guitar was put on.
[F#m] There was percussion at the same [B] time as the basic track was cut.
And then there was a lot of overdubbing.
Fuzz bass, extra percussion tracks,
another lead guitar track, drum overdubs,
foot stomping, background voices.
Here's the drums.
[G#] [B]
And now the bass,
[Am] [B] which is taken direct,
direct feed from the bass guitar right into the [E] console.
And there's an amplifier [B] track,
which is usually quite distorted, but we use it for that effect.
And then Jimmy's basic guitar,
[Bm] which is taken in stereo,
[A] with a direct feed on his guitar and an amplifier.
[F#] Here's the direct, which is very clean.
[D] [B] And you can hear the difference between that and this.
And in stereo it sounds pretty neat.
We have the bass back in.
See, the bass and the bass [F#] in the guitar
are playing basically the same line [B] together.
It kind of locks the rhythm in.
And then at the same time we have this percussion track going on,
as well as a conga track.
This is cut live.
Pretty good separation.
Thank you, Electric Lady.
There's a plug if ever I heard one.
Now, we'll try and find the fuzz bass guitar overdub.
If we can find it.
[F] [B] No,
[B] it hasn't come up yet.
It'll be somewhere around.
Here's the lead guitar.
[F#]
And the lead.
[Dm] Jimmy put on a lead vocal at the same time [C] as putting on this lead guitar,
so he can get into the mood of the vocal as well as [B] putting on the guitar.
[Bm] I'll split that for you.
[F#]
That's the leakage you're hearing.
Jimmy's standing in the studio with a huge bank of Marshalls,
and there's a vocal mic on him too, so you're hearing that on his [B] vocal mic.
[Bm]
[D] Here's the fuzz bass.
[F#]
[D]
[Bm] [E] [B]
[Bm]
[B]
[E] [B]
I'm just going to wind back and find the point where the background vocals come in.
That was yet another overdub.
Jimmy is singing in there [F#] with the ghetto fighters,
and [Bm]
another vocal track which we never used.
[B] Back to the old cougar track.
Here's the foot stomping track we overdubbed.
It was kind of an interesting trail.
Add some echo to it.
[Am] [B]
[A] [E]
[B] [E]
[Am] [B] [F#]
[A]
[E] [Am]
[D] [Am]
There's a [B] nice line in there, tribute to Devin.
Jimmy says, well you'll hear it, I'll play it to you.
I'll just pull the tracks down so you can hear what he's saying.
Because I think Devin was in the control room at the same time that he was doing this.
I think the song was [Am] obviously dedicated to her.
Here it [E] is.
[Am] [D]
[Am] It's kind of a nice touch.
[D]
[A]
[F#] [Bm]
[B]
[E] [B]
As you can see, it's a very complex track.
Many, many layers of sounds.
Jimmy's lead guitar somehow floats through the
