PEARL
JAM: 10
To
bookend the album, the band chose a moody, bass-driven instrumental
swatch that has come to be known as "Master/Slave."
"As I recall, I think Jeff had, like, a bass line,"
Parashar said when contacted for this article. "I heard
the bass line and then we kind of were collaborating on
that in the control room, and then I just started programming
on the keyboard all this stuff; he was jamming with it and
it just kind of came about like that."READ

Over
at Track Record's North Studio, I found energetic producer/engineer
Tim Palmer mixing on Track's new SSL 9080J Series desk. Palmer,
known for his work with U2, Pearl Jam, David Bowie and Tears
for Fears, among others, was settling in after some major
globetrotting, which put him in Dublin, Sydney, London, Toronto,
Copenhagen and Rome. It's definitely been a good year for
Palmer, who's been called one of the unsung heroes of alt
rock. READ

Tim
Palmer is a difficult engineer to pigeonhole. From the moment
he got his breaks early in his ~career in the '80s, he's been
producing and mixing a hugely diverse collection of artists.
His career has taken in sessions with the likes of Bowie's
Tin Machine, two Tears For Fears albums, Sepultura, Robert
Plant and Pearl Jam, among many others. Comparatively recently,
Tim turned his attention to being a specialist mix engineer,
"because staying up till 5am for two months on end has
become less appealing". His invaluable blend of a mixer's
proficiency and producer's creativity came to the attention
of Irish ubergroup, U2. READ

Ozzy review from NME.Com
Amidst all the MTV freakshow brouhaha
it's all too easy to forget that Ozzy -
Lord King Emperor of RAWK - is blessed with the singing
voice of an orgasming seraphim. Forget 'Dreamer',
it's a sub 'Imagine' eco-pish ballad and
is thus the hideously deformed bollocks of the world's ugliest
chihuahua.
But
'Get Me Through' is the real deal. A 12-thumb
killa-riff intro warns us that we are about to feast on
raw, bloody and possibly still semi-conscious meat. And
then Ozzy starts caterwauling over a hysterical
Hammer Horror organ riff and the small hairs lining your
spasming spine ripple in appreciation. Hear this.
