This chapter looks at real-life embodied social dynamics between the members of a jazz quartet as they work to record an album in a professional studio. The study is based on audio and video recordings of one of the songs on the album, using data both from the recording booths and from the control room during listening and feedback sessions. In addition, the bass and drum tracks for four takes of the song are analyzed to explore the timing of the rhythmic interactions between drummer and bass player. The first part of the chapter focuses on the verbal negotiations between the bass player and the drummer, highlighting a fundamental disagreement about the value of different takes of the same piece. The second part seeks to disentangle the disagreement on the basis of a more objective analysis of the sound traces left by the musicians.
