I played him three songs, the three I had done in six weeks.
Anyway, I played him the three songs.
And had to hold on to.
They said, John, this is, they're too rough.
And what is this sound in Jack and Diane?
It's not even, what is that sound?
was I would walk by the Bee Gees studio, and they had just invented drum machines.
And the Bee Gees were using it to keep time.
Because, you know, most drummers, they speed up, you know, they start the song at this tempo, and all of a sudden, they're like, by the end of the song, it's like, I can't keep up with you, goddammit, slow down.
So the Bee Gees were using it to keep time.
And I heard this sound, and so I knew the engineer.
His name was Albie Gluten.
