I've been arguing with people for 10 years about tape versus digital, and I believe tape is absolutely essential in getting the sound that's conducive to the enjoyment of music.
I just go in the studio and write on the spot and see what comes out.
Two men look out the same prison bars; one sees mud and the other stars.

You have to shelve a lot of your inspiration. There's only so much you can do with one record.
There's an infinite amount of possibilities and detours and things that can distract you from actually just performing the song and having whatever emotion that's invested into the song come through in the recording.
