Happy (American) Thanksgiving!

Just thought I would check in with some recent news posted on Frank's site. Thanks to Ryabrocks33 for bringing it to my attention.

Back in the studio soon: Ben says he's going to start working on the next record in December. He's assembling a studio and recording equipment and has written much of the new material. In a departure from current technology where producers with computers yada yada, the recording gear will be mostly restored vintage equipment, acquired from brokers who handle used equipment from such storied houses as Britain's Abbey Road studios. And yes, there will be multitrack analog tape involved as well. Anything Ben does is always interesting, so stay tuned for the results! There is no target release date for the album yet, but based on the typical production cycle, don't look for a release much sooner than next fall.

Have a wonderful holiday if you're here in the U.S. and a great day if you're not!
