I think the whole pick thing is a little bit of a misnomer. Richie will still use a pick in the studio. He just doesn’t use them playing live. There were certain sounds you just can’t get without a pick and if the song calls for it he’ll use a pick for that in the studio. For example, the song Fire, the nylon string rhythm parts are clearly played with a pick. And the flamenco runs are clearly recorded using a pick.
1:08 - I love that moment when they look at each other when Billy played that little muted lick. You can see a true passion for playing music there! That's the spirit!
Theres a wicked tambourine solo in this version. If u listen to the studio version closely, u can make out Christopher Walken saying "Needs more Tambourine "
Portnoy não deveria parar com o Winery Dogs, formação massa demais com esses caras. O som deles é diferenciado, arranjos e letras diferentes das bandas dessa vibe.
He has not hit rock bottom - he is a true musician that plays exactly what is needed for the song or project he is doing... He sounds great for what they’re doing here, playing his part and singing... Period, jesus christ man, pay attention to what they care doing here,
