Heart Stays True to Its Roots

Keeping things real like they did in the old days, Heart wants to make an all-analog album.

Good news for Heart fans. The group plans to record their next album with analog technology, to celebrate the era when they made it big.

The American band, whose glory days were highlighted in the 1970s with hits like Barracuda, Crazy On You, Magic Man and Dreamboat Annie, hope to return to their roots.

Nancy Wilson, one of the two sisters in the group, explained, "We’ve been approaching it on a really human level. There’s not a digital construct anywhere. We are putting up baffles and playing together at the same time: drums, bass and guitars, all at once, in the same room, looking at each other and jiving off each other, so that it’s really a conversation in process. It’s not painting by colors — it’s a performance, a conversation."

When asked about when the new album would arrive, Wilson replied, "We only have a couple more songs to record. We have 10 songs pretty much ready. It shouldn’t take us much longer. I hope to finish it all up and we’ll put it out in the spring."
