RE: Chris Squire - the Fish

[goddard.duncan@mtvne.com]

do you know if chris squire used loops to make the studio version? it's not obvious how the live version is achieved either...

you might want to give "olias of sunhillow" a spin too; same era, jon anderson solo album, though there were suggestions at the time that a certain greek keyboardist may have already been helping out, prior to his auditioning for the wakeman vacancy (which went to moraz eventually), & his later collaborations with anderson.

there are a few tracks on this album, "we have heaven" most notably, that appear to feature looping.

 

I also found a picture on a 10CC-related site (probably the one dedicated to strawberry studios in stockport) that showed eric stewart's collection of vocal loops for "I'm not in love". I'm supposing that cutting 2" multitrack tape into short loops was something that occurred to quite a few people at some time.
