To paraphrase a quote from Joe in this video: "For the early Beatles albums, the studio just told the band to go into the live room and they'd just hit record and go, but for the later 60's albums, they do some live, then all kinds of overdubs, turn the tapes inside out and upside down, etc. In this studio, for recordings, we're not precious about saying 'oh it's got to be live' no it's got to be good."
Fuck yeah, could not agree more.
I mean, if you want to capture the vibe of a live band playing, then sure, record a live band playing. But forbidding yourself from going beyond that and doing what's necessary to make the best sounds come out of the speakers via overdubs or whatever else is possible, simply because of some bullshit code of "musical integrity" you choose to employ that ultimately only results in making the music worse, is kind of a fool's pursuit.
Nobody cares about whether your album was recorded live in one take. They care about whether the sounds coming out of the speakers make them feel good. That's literally all that matters.
Alright enough preaching. Cool studio!
