Timely post. Still working on organizing my first recording session for my next album, and rehearsals. On my first album I gave little to no direction to musicians coming in to play parts. This being my fourth I'm at a different place. I'm trying a little "trick" on my rhythm section. I'm going to record a cover song that's both super simple, but also has grand/ elaborate parts as well. Hoping to see how they react to that. I know this isn't quite what your talking about in your post but any thoughts on this approach?

Tell me more! What are you hoping the result will be?
