Question for the Mastering Guru Extraordinaire

[Larry Naramore]

Do the Wolfman Jack "Let's Cruise" discs have any airchecks like "Howling On The Air". I think I might have asked this before....old timers is setting in again.

[John Oteri]

I know!

No. They have little catch phrases from some of Wolfman Jack's radio carts, but no actual air checks from his shows.

[Larry Naramore]

John let me rephrase my question. Is there any WJ chatter before/during/after the songs. I'm not sure if airchecks refer to commercials or what. Thanks for the reply.

[Steve Hoffman]

Yes, a bit.

Cute daughter!

[Larry Naramore]

Steve actually shes my granddaughter. Here's a lot of Wolfman chatter mp3's.

Steve,

One of the few (ONLY?) times you will likely hear a NEGATIVE comment about your product (did you master both of these 2 CDs for Big Ear?) from me.

Let's Cruise has the "highest Highs" and "lowest Lows" of sound quality!!!


Chris Montez- Let's Dance is absolutley fab!!!

Joe Henderson- Snap Your Fingers has snap allright...as in "old worn out 45!"

There are also way too many "howls" in the middle of the songs that are not too great IMHO!:confused:

[Steve Hoffman]

Pat,

Those two discs were made from the Wolfman's personal radio "carts" of those songs, all from records no less.

I managed to slip my master mix of "Let's Dance" and a few more neat ones in there when no one was looking.

Sigh. It's never easy.

Thanks Steve,

I knew there was a good reason for this!

P.S. Though it is definitely NOT the season to be jolly...having recently listened to "Merry from Lena" - Lena Horne, all I can say is "SuPeR" job once again Steve and...what's this...a mention to Kevin Gray?! Yep! ;)
