PALINDROME

 

My buddy Jim Weiler wanted to hear some backwards guitar music and I foolishly told him I would send him some the next day. But I didn't know how to use my new computer recording equipment to do backwards stuff, as I used to do with my Yamaha 4-track tape recorder -- which I do not want to break out of retirement. Well, that was a few months ago and I finally figured out -- sort of -- how to transport some tracks to COOL EDIT to reverse the guitars then blend them back into the forward tracks in ACID. Does it work? Not really. but then it's only a nightsong.

 

NOTE: There is one special thing about this song that made it relatively easy to blend the forward and backward tracks. Can you hear what it is? The title of the song is a clue. Answer tomorrow.
