A good band trying to get away from the bad places. You've never heard of us but somehow we're on Wikipedia.

Later the same day after everyone was gone, I went back and edited the trumpet parts, and copied some phrases to fill out the end, and well here it is:

Tying a bow on this thread🧵...

The way we tackled the trumpet parts was phrase by phrase. We'd play a bit of the song, I'd hammer out notes on the piano and say, "play that." We'd record him playing it and move on to the next phrase.

Even though we didn't finish the song I had enough to finish.

Things were now completely out of hand as there may have been more drunk people than sober in the session. We were so close to done, but I knew there was no longer any hope of accomplishing anything further.

So I called it a day on drunken trumpet.

Things were going great, and we had gotten about 2/3 of the way through the song when one of my partners in the studio, also an extremely talented musician and producer, walked into the session.

Which would've been fine, except he was also extremely drunk. And just bursting to offer his own advice.

Instead of getting him right in front of a microphone to put down a track, we sat with him and played the tune while we gave him drinks. We explained what we wanted, which was a kind of Ennio Morricone bullfighter theme, but drunk.

As soon as we noticed he was slurring, we got a mic on him.
