When I was in high school I did a lot of theatre and a wise old instructor gave
us this universally utilitarian response to a performance:

"You did it! You really did it!"

Is it still a compliment when the Jury says that?

I was doing a session for a producer who after a take said through
the TB: "You're playing exactly what I'm hearing"


And also from "Tap" Fred Willard blathering to the band- "We're big
fans of your music. Not your band particularly, but the whole genre".

And his playing never seems to amaze me.

I once did a take and the producer came back over the talkback with "That was
great, let's do one more........."

Actually, that's not flattery, it's good production sense, IME. If we
have an excellent take and we know it, we can often get a better one
just because the one in the can lets us relax completely about getting
what we need. We can go for what we can't reasonably expect and
sometimes get that, too.

I've found being a great engineer/producer is more psychology than it is
technology.

"a remarkable artist of such rare talent"

I don't think this comment was meaningless but I loved it.

After the girlfriend of an artist heard his new album she said to me.

"Pete I love the record, you did a great job. It doesn't even sound like
him".

And it's just as good of a production technique to be running prior to the
group's knowledge that you're running. A 10 piece latin/cuban band was in
and after about an hour of futzing around the leader had them run through a
couple of quick passages that they were meaning to use for one minute demos.
They all came out fine. Then he told them they weren't recording yet, and I
walked in and said "Oh yes you are". They never hit anything else well the
rest of the night.

So I guess my most meaningless compliment was "Remember when I told you to
be practiced and ready before coming into the studio? Well, it looks like
you tried really hard."

But in general I agree. Knowing you have a well played piece down does free
up most musicians to be less concerned about the process of recording, and
more concerned about the process of making music.

Somebody told me Phil Woods once said about another sax player

"He never played the same solo once....."

Good job, now try it with the mittens off.

You're playing like you've never played before.

or

It's going to be hard to choose.
