Headcold

Sorry I've been AWOL lately, everyone. I've currently got the awful headcold that my poor Patrick had a few days ago. I'm at home sick feeling sorry for myself.

Patrick did the last few string tracks last night on the computer. He's amazing! The more I listen to myself, though, the more I feel like I should fix every single little imperfection I hear on the recording. I'm going to do more retakes when I am healthy again anyway for my own education (it's a good learning process), but do you guys care if it's perfect or not?

Okay, realistically it's never going to be perfect. We did this in our living room on a crappy mic with $100 worth of software. It's not exactly a recording studio in LA. And it isn't bad, I just hear little things here and there, like a word that isn't precisely enunciated or whether my voice sounds too warm and ought to have a harder edge to it.

I guess what I want to know is do you want me to try and make it absolutely as good as I possibly can before putting it out there, or should I do it now? Listen to me, I sound like I think I'm keeping my adoring public waiting... /eyeroll This is hardly the case. It's just that if I get caught up in trying to attain machine-like perfection, you might not hear it for a year. Or ever.

Opinions, please?
