when i lived in colorado i heard 2 tracks back to back from there on the radio (i never listen to the radio) and it was the first time i had ever heard a frank black or pixies song on the radio. I almost shat myself!
DITS was the 3rd live to two track record we did. I think it came out so clean cuz we were really starting to get how to do the live to 2 track thing, and it was the 3rd time (and last album) we did at Sound City Studios (great studio). After that me and Matt Yelton and then Ben Mumphrey built our own recording rig which was meant to be both old school analog and mobile; it was, but it also was a new challenge to find the right space to record in; I think that you can hear us working that out for the next 2 records and then we got "clean" again with SMYT, as we moved into an unoccupied studio space which was perfect for our rig. It is not as clean as DITS, but if you could see the difference in gear you would understand. I think I like all the live to 2 track records for different reasons on each. But DITS was for sure a real accomplishment for myself and the Catholics and we really put a lot of effort into it.
