I just heard this song on the radio by Danni Leigh. I thought the music sounded like a flash from the past.
What do you think?

I agree. Very Patsy Clineish. She seems to come across well on record. But, as we have read here in the recent past, her live performance leaves something to be desired.

Hi Earl, Long time no see(You still have that Birdland?)...

. Pro-Tools is a software program used quite alot in, Nashville at least, to automatically "tune" the vocals. It has made many an average live singer into a good studio singer. I think it has been in wide use about 3 or 4 years...maybe longer. Some think it is the ruination of real recording vocal talent , some think it is just a time saver and useful tool. I can see arguments for both sides, but I think it has been over used and I know for a fact that it has helped more than a few C&W singers pass as very good recording artists. IMHO
Hey Dumpling...You all sounded great at the "Station Inn" Keep at it...

They have machines now (Antares etc) that tune up bad singers in real time. They are available on most TV shows.

Thanks guys,
I was referring more to the music than her singing. If I was a singer, I'd appreciate any help that was given to enhance
me vocally! But, always the talent needs to be there.

If any of you saw InReview last week, Charles Earle did a article on studio tricks like Pro Tools. Basically you could feed in a monotone and come out with a singing voice sound. The article talked of plans to "create" a female Latino singer,using computer generated imaging for pictures of her,and tricks like Pro Tools for her singing voice. Pro Tools is how the business has come up with so many 13 to 18 year old females that sound like they're in their 30's

Pete Drake told me one time that in all his years in Nashville,there was one singer who he had never heard sing sharp or flat-Loretta Lynn.

All Pro Tools/Antares does is make a mediocre/no feel singer an "in-tune" mediocre/no feel singer.

Earl, could you shoot us some advance info...liner notes, anecdotal info?
I have buddy, Jim,in Seattle who DJ's a "Hillbill Jazz/Hot Guitar Picker/Guitar/PSG Duo" sort of radio show. He'll play your CD if you slip us a demo copy.

I talked him into interviewing Leon Rhodes, as he and I are huge Texas Troubadours fans.

Mr. Hedge just a quick Spanish
language lesson. When one refers to
a Hispanic female, she is called a
"Latina." When one refers to a
Hispanic male, he is called a
"Latino." So which gender is going
to use the computer generated
imaging, etc.? Latino or Latina?

Just my two cents worth!

They can make them soumd like what and who they want. Nashvlle is good at making clones. Heck there cloning the GOOD old singers all the time. BUT some day they must face the cold hard truth and that cold hard truth can hurt real bad

Jerry Hedge · Post by **Jerry Hedge** » 6 Mar 2000 2:57 pm

Mary, sorry if I offended you! I meant Latina. Hey, what do I know? I'm just a poor old Hillbilly musician.

Earl Erb · Post by **Earl Erb** » 6 Mar 2000 5:12 pm

What! Now we have to worry about being politically correct before we can post on this forum?

Latina · Post by **Latina** » 7 Mar 2000 4:46 am

Mr. Hedge:
No offense taken. As I stated, just a quick and free Spanish lession (

). It is a commonly made mistake.
