Yann here, the mysterious man behind the GBB who everyone really knows pulls the strings. Some have called me the George Martin of the Groanbox Boys, a title I'll grudgingly accept. For my first post on this blog I thought I would give you all a glimpse of the process that went into creating the new Groanbox Boys album. Above is a scan (click to enlarge) of a few pages from my little black notebook. You can see:

- my meticulous notetaking
- the number of mistakes that needed to be fixed
- cryptic scribbling (a mark of genius)
- the types of microphones used
- and more.
