Currently, I am basically doing my own stuff which really sounds Jagged Rocks-ish because I can't seem to break away from my root style established in the early 80s.<br /><br />I hope to redo a version of Dream Station some day, and another song that I really liked called "Color Me Pastel."<br /><br />Anyway, if you care to listen to any of my newer stuff you can find it here:<br />https://soundcloud.com/scott-wilkinson-534853213<br /><br />As you can tell, I became a Christian (back in 1989) and that is what led me out of the original JROTP.Scott Wilkinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15268699637520400347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6776777782419637264.post-44126303420122695822017-03-05T18:52:16.900-08:002017-03-05T18:52:16.900-08:00Wow, thanks Scott!

Did Jagged Rocks record/release anything else?spavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00986537771229635843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6776777782419637264.post-5104547561829647542017-03-04T18:00:02.488-08:002017-03-04T18:00:02.488-08:00As I remember it correctly, we recorded the album ...As I remember it correctly, we recorded the album in basically two evenings. We basically play all the songs live together without vocals and then added some secondary parts (keyboards etc.). Then we did the vocals. We did not have the money to spend for studio time to really polish it. In fact, we were so rushed that we neglected tuning up guitars for some tracks... and you can really hear it.<br /><br />Perhaps the biggest disappointment with the whole thing was the mastering. I think we received a draft master before they printed the disks and we listened to it at Tim Ferguson's house (bass player) on a tiny record player. At the time Jim and Tim knew that the bass had been completely lost in mastering. I couldn't tell. When we got the final records, sure enough, the bass was terrible. That is really regrettable because I think Tim Ferguson is one of the greatest bass players. He writes wonderfully creative bass parts. And when we laid the tracks in the studio, Tim had a really great deep rich tone. Anyway, I have a terrible memory, but that is what I recall.Scott Wilkinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15268699637520400347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6776777782419637264.post-10380841158083836182017-01-10T23:30:02.491-08:002017-01-10T23:30:02.491-08:00Thank you so much.
