once something is recorded, it’s final – cut, and print… and good musicians hate that.
because as soon as it’s sent out to get distributed, the artist realizes 12 ways the song could have been better. so, a good musician realizes that music is not like a painting or a sculpture or the gentle curves of a mazda miata, it’s perpetual, it’s constantly changing, morphing and organically shifting (uncapturable, if you will), like a cloud, or the wind as it races along the prairies.
SO, you can’t really judge a good musician by his/her recordings because they are never satisfied with their stuff, and would much rather you listen to them jam to a ry cooder album.
and don’t even get me started on how bands record now adays. they don’t even play… it’s computer generated crap, minipulated on a Mac by some nerd who thinks he’s the shit.
