yo no encuentro palabras, solo una musica…
Domino Theory was the first album on which Zawinul used drum machines. “The drum machine is for composing music perfectly,” Zawinul explained to John Diliberto. “You can lay out a chord, and you always have that click track. If you listen to the ballad ‘Can It Be Done,’ it has a perfect hi-hat beat. It cannot be played better. And you can shape that note here and there. The bass drum on the Linn [LM-1 drum computer], you can tune to any note. And once I put it through the Oberheim, I get a sound you wouldn’t believe–BOOM!–like a big military drum. You can still play your little percussion instruments next to it, and it’s groovin’. You can overdub some real instruments later and leave it out, but for starting out it’s ideal.” [DB84]

SIDE ONE
1. CAN IT BE DONE (WILLIE TEE)
Zawinul plays all of the instruments backing the vocals using his keyboards and electronic percussion machines. “It’s only keyboards, and I have the drum machine playing the hi-hat,” he told Down Beat. “The string sound is incredible. I have a nice bass sound on the ballad that’s from the Fairlight.” [DB84]
