Percussion Discussion by Shawn Lee's Toe Rag Orchestra

In January 2024,musicians Shawn Lee,Paul Elliott and Rupert Brown went in to the legendary Toe Rag studio in East London.
Playing together live in the same room without isolation and mostly with no headphones,using only a few choice microphones straight onto a Studer 8 track one inch machine.
Not a computer in sight…
Recorded and mixed in two days by engineer and Toe Rag founder & chief Liam Watson.
Spontaneously composed using only eye contact,acute listening and pure musicianship,this was both a rare and joyous experience for this merry band of groove goofballs!
A true“Percussion Discussion “.
The album was one of the very last sessions at Toe Rag before the studio sadly closed its doors forever.
