Har har just got his today!!! Farewell CD rocks!!!

Post by yamasaaaki har har » Thu Feb 16, 2006 11:14 pm

Yes, it raouckxzs!!! Thank you so much, Executioner! I didn't think I was really gonna like the CD but I do and I think the song selection is good enough. Sure there could have been more, but I'm content with what's on the CD. The only thing I didn't like so much was the "Jesus loves you" solo.

The rock medley was probably the best part of the CD. I was skeptical about Petra cutting songs into smaller portions. But it actually is more enjoyable listening to parts of various songs than listening to just one entire song. I love the transitions from one piece to another.

Question - how did Petra put the electronic drums and noises in "It's All About Who You Know" and "Think Twice?" And how did they put the chimes in "Jekyll and Hyde?"

A Mac G4 notebook computer. Actually, I'm sure there was more to it than that, but that's the only thing obvious to a non-musician like myself.

I liked the beginning part of John's solo before the J.L.Y. stuff, but it could have been longer. I don't feel like they featured John Lawry enough on this cd. I could hardly hear the keyboards on "Graverobber."

No, I don't think he needed to practice more. He did excellent as always. Even though I didn't like the sound sample he chose for the J.L.Y. solo, I still like the way he played it. You can tell he is very talented. Too bad he didn't get to play any more on this album.

But despite that, at least there's enough of John S, Bob, Paul, Greg, and Greg. They all expressed the peak of their abilities to make this album very enjoyable.

Gohn Lolz or Jreg Vawry?

Oh, Oh! Another question.

Is that Greg Volz or John Lawry talking before the song "Graverobber?"

I didn't care much for the JSL part myself either. Something about it was just (off). Not sure if it was intended to be that way, or if there were technical difficulties or what.

Regardless watching the CITAS video John is/was definetly a hyper kinetic player.. :lol:

I really like the synth solo he does in "Homeless Few" as well.
