News: Ed Wolfrum - Detroit Sound by Rob Moss
Really interesting article. As a musician I love reading stuff about studios and recording. Below is a picture of the Wolf Box and some text to supplement your superb article - Thanks for posting:- Ed designed an ingenious device that allowed Jamerson, Coffey, Babbitt, all the great studio musicians to PLUG-IN directly and reap the sonic benefits of full range recording. The Motown producers were so impressed with the quality of his device, they affectionately dubbed Ed's invention The Wolfie Box.

Bobby Womack - New Stuff
I know what you mean. The synth chords voicing and little fills/figures aint particularly inspiring but the rest is good I think (nice guitar bit at the end ) and of course the vocals and melody are top notch.

Bobby Womack - New Stuff
You might be disappointed judging from this quote "Bobby seemed to relish the opportunity to make something modern and original, and embraced and encouraged the use of unusual sounds and techniques," Richard Russell said. "It was hard to believe how free of ego he was, and how open to new ideas"

I like it. Produced by Damon Albarn and recorded in his studio in London I think?

I take it you mean singing/rapping during Thommasino Walker and other voice/ sound overs towards the end notably during The Appointments? A very enjoyable podcast. He was very good at Soul Syndicate in Kensall Rise last Friday night too!
