The Sheltering Sky, did I realize those were female vocals. I had never pictured that, extremely acute vocals where the tongue s motion is as quick as that of a serpent, you don t even see the tongue, for it s very fast. Say, it s not me who picks my repertoire. I can t read music. That s very nice to see, because everyone plays differently, in his own way, that s Brazilian guitar.
Guitar brings vocals on.
Then vocals bring guitar on, which brings another vocal on. We listen to other people s music, and then all of a sudden you start making your music which comes from those people. I arrive at the studio and record vocal and guitar. The bass player comes and records afterwards. I use no drum machine to set the rhythm because, to tell the truth, I don t need that.
