I agree Nigel, it’s so great! So much work has gone into the site! Love this new 2.0 site. Yes, Jung I love the header banner too.
There’s also great new functionalities.
Congratulations to the MLT team!

Thank you Jung! My studio has just been through some upgrades and renovations, I’m very happy with it. Given that I spend 8 to 10 hours a day in the room (7 days a week, lately), it was about time. 🙂

What a great bundle, my studio has MLT stuff everywhere now, I love it! And I love the sweatshirt/hoodie/jumper, it’s very soft, fits me perfectly and it is getting non stop use!
Everything MLT does, it’s done with care, attention to detail and lots of LOVE.
Thank you!

I agree Bill. This song is truly a gem. It’s one of those songs that seems to come together magically. It jumped out at me the first time I heard it, and my jaw dropped. Of course, the Twins make something look simple and easy, but it’s really a complex song to do. Very much like The Beatles. They’ve also said that they knocked this one out pretty fast in he studio. More proof (should anyone still need it) that MTL are world class musicians all around.

By “Bananas on the Bongos” I mean the ‘Cajon’, probably. BTW, “cajon” is the Spanish word for box (also drawer).

I’m looking forward to the video of this one too, as it sounds like Mona’s going bananas on the bongos.
Speaking of Pete’s signature windmill strum, while he was doing it on stage in the late 80’s he impaled his hand on the whammy bar. Ouch.

Well, I’m hearing Mona taking lead vocals and acoustic rhythm, then… bongos! (or some percussion?), which I’m guessing it’s Lisa as it alternates between bongos and lead electric guitar. I wonder which guitar she chose for this song. Looking forward to this video.The Beatles lead seems to be played on a Casino, that may be George, or even Paul.

I can’t wait to see the video of this one. If my ears ain’t lying to me, Mona takes lead vocals and anchors the song with that skillful rhythm acoustic while Lisa’s playing bongos AND lead guitar?? Quite the circus trick…
-
With those deserts, I’ll coming to dinner Jung! ?
-
I would love to see/hear a live version of Club 27. Raw , a la Cream.
“Slow Hand” Lisa on lead, “Ginger” Mona on Drums, and Papa “Jack” Rudi on bass?
That would be one heck of a show…

Thank you Jung and Jacki.
Sorry I’ve been absent, these times have me busier that I’ve ever been. For someone who works from home and doesn’t interact in the outside world often, my life day to day life hasn’t changed much, other than my workload has gone tenfold.
I was going to record -still planning to- an MLT tune on the Masterbilt, but I haven’t been able to do so yet. Hopefully I won’t butcher it too badly.
I hope you’re all healthy and happy!
Peace and Love above all!

Thanks Rudolf!
Yes, we’ve all seen our thumbs tap dancing through the settings maze of a fancy camera, trying to find that option we know is there -we’ve seen it before- yet it vanishes like a politician’s promise.
My Lisa loves the Pro Mist filter, even a 1/4, but she’s a bit older than your Lisa and Mona ? I’m amazed at how well Mona and Lisa do their makeup, they do a much better job than many “professional” makeup artists in Hollywood. “Chapeau” to all you do, it’s always top quality, and I know it ain’t easy. I haven’t had to use ND filters yet, I closed down the aperture from 1.8 to 2.2 and at 1/60 (US standard – 30fps) with my lighting setup gives me an ISO of 100, with still a shallow depth of field (I’ve got a Nikon D7500 and a 85mm lens). My stuff is live streaming and audio sync can be a nightmare. I see from other posts that you have solved that nicely for your setup.
Thank you for everything y’all do. Your dedication to quality is very rare these days, I truly appreciate it aside of how much I love the music.
