"When Tricky wasn't around, I imported their stuff into Cubase, picked the bits that I liked and compiled them underneath Martina's vocal. And although I was really excited about it, I waited at least two weeks before I played it to Tricky. I actually had it playing one morning when he walked in the room, and he immediately went, ''Ere, what's that? That's wicked!' 'It's 'Black Steel'.' 'It sounds great!' What a relief that was."

Fantastic article and one of my favourite albums from that time. I always remember the drums on that first track the most.

I've done a few sessions like that.
Really good way to get an ulser.

heh heh! geez like 7 years before I got diagnosed during one session I swear I felt the center of my brain explode.... that session was very similar to the tricky ones (though not exactly anybody well known!), with the addition of multiple drug dealers/needle users making frequent trips to the toilet... maybe the problem was that I was totally sober!
my god I don't miss dealing with that

But DANG those Tricky sessions Beanstalk mentions came out pretty great...
