THE MAKING OF SLEEPLESS by Peter Wolf
Changes and surprises are the results of all good collaborations and that was definitely the case in the making of this record. I tried to emulate the process and techniques of some of the records that have had a great influence on me. Everything - from the songs, the musicians, the studio, the recording equipment, right up to the final mastering - were all chosen to help achieve this goal.
