Michael, thanks for posting this. It was an honor to work on this song. What a unique take on the subject, from the point of view of a church building, but it's a metaphor for the church itself. The choir is seven of us, Sandi Kaye, her daughter Cassie, Paul Sparks, Jay Shupe, Beth Travers, Dave Signs and me, we are all part of the "OK Chorale" at Nashville Cowboy Church. We cut the choir at Studio 215, Dave Signs' studio. This is eight tracks of us singing different parts. The fiddles are by Drew Covington. I played twelve string guitar, five tracks of six string acoustic guitar, keyboard harp, organ, programmed cymbals, live percussion, mandolin, upright bass and programmed orchestra. The handclaps were eight tracks of me clapping, quadrupled and then processed with an impulse response reverb. The impulse response is an interesting process. There is an impulse, either a blank gunshot, a ceramic hammer hitting a woodblock or a similar impulse, that is done at various locations and recorded with high end equipment. That impulse is then loaded into a program that uses it to put the reverb and ambience of that environment on a track. In this case, it is from a church in Schellingwode Germany. So the reverb is as if the handlaps were in that church LOL. I've got a collection of impulse responses from around the world and from different environments. Once we used an impulse response from inside a volkswagon van to create an environment that sounded like the singer was talking on the radio in a small twin-engine plane. Fun Stuff. Thanks Tom, I like "big" tracks to still sound "open." Too often big tracks sound like either a lot of things have been squeezed into a medium sized room, or that things are happening in different rooms. I try to get things to sound like some folks are close and some further away in a large space. I find you can't just put the same reverb on everything. That's not the way things hit my ears in church. Thanks all and, of course, thank God. Without Him, we would not have "The Church."

I enjoyed listening and the story about Mr Foot's addition was quite interesting. There is a lot going on in there!

what an uplifting song. So many interesting melodic and tempo changes making for a very interesting listen. It's true we don't need a building to call it a church (but it sure keeps out the rain Nice production all the way around. Gone for a second listen. Great job guys! Part of the remnant, Lynn

WOW! I have to say that I am just amazed that you were able to juggle so many balls in the air at one time without all of them running into each other. The EQ control is a work of art in itself. Not to mention the problem of keeping the minute amount of noise in each track from adding together and sounding like a window unit air conditioner in the back ground. I'm surprised at how well you keep everything separate and not have it coming out like a big ball of mud. It's hard to get one acoustic guitar to sound right never mind five. Then make everything sound like it was played and sang at the same time in the same room! All I can say is WOW!
