And that's why I use session people. the songs obviously changed â their shape, and not their direction". "I had a live band before recording took place and a lot of material together before going into the studio. But the band was totally inexperienced, they would have put the budget up by an incredible amount. So we decided to use session people". "I make records for myself.
