With live performances being such a large part of Mason's artistic existence it seems only natural that he would record a live album, something he was aware of as he sat down to work on Live Fire.
Recorded live in Seattle the album, he said, lacks tentative feelings: "The hardest thing about making studio records is having where I'm at with my singing and guitar playing translate. The Time Will Come record [his last studio effort] came as close to a true sound as I have yet. It's easy when you're in a studio to not let things flow and sound as natural as they would in a live situation," he said, "So, the extreme case of that is to do a live album."
Eschewing overdubs Live Fire capitalizes on the spirit of spontaneity that Mason has tried to capture in his studio efforts. "I don't feel comfortable messing around with the performances once they come through," he said ~By Jedd Beaudoin
