SMASH ADDAMS, 'Hard to Get Over' [2023 reissue]
The original 2004-05 session produced with the late Leo Goff, III as one of his first projects overseeing everything. We had previously worked together recording the E.P. at Ardent back in 2003 with my former band, MANICS. I chose to keep working with him on a solo project and he brought in some local cats including Annie Freres, Grayson Grant, Nigel Albertson, my friend Lita Williams, and I'm sure I'm forgetting a someone or two...but I learned alot working with him and I do regret I hadn't seen him since 2006...he was busy with his work with YO GOTTI a lot of the time. I've read he went on do to just what he did best. I think of him for the brief time I knew him. Funny, chill guy and a great producer / intuitive guy. That's just what I learned from that sliver of time in my life...twenty years later, give or take a lost weekend or two since I started living again, hehe. Also, a shout out to Eric Seaburg for providing the original artwork (2004). The album was made on a shoe-string budget of time and little to no money over a few months at Nu-Star mostly (thanks to Robert Picone for letting us in during those spare moments to work). We tracked some piano at Young Avenue and Ardent...later post-production done by me at home, late 2011. This was supposed to be my very first album but it ended up being my tenth, LOL.
"Time has its way with everyone in its path..."
Please enjoy my first and most memorable in times recording in Memphis in real studios with some great musicians who gave us the pleasure of contributing their talents to something that wasn't in the world before we found it. Rest in power, LG3.
CHeers!
