RIVER

​

"River" is a song that Joni Mitchell recorded with piano and released in 1971. 

 

This version is very different to that and also quite different to most of the tracks I produce.  It makes a lot of use of synthesised sounds and processing.

​

A couple of years ago Two Coats Colder were asked to perform some Christmas songs at a folk club and we did this with guitar, bass and mandolin accompaniment.  When Anna and I decided try recording it, we were not sure of the key or tempo and so I set up a synthesised track for her to try until we found what worked.   This is what evolved.
