Recording the band's first take

This one from Beginning to End
I mean, including pre-production work, right?
You know, that means the band rehearsed the songs together
Which we never did before, you know?
Because I like the idea of the band playing it
All for the first time in the studio together

They would all play it by themselves
Apart, and then go into the studio
And for the first time
We all played it together, and I would have the tape running

And for that moment, when everybody suddenly played it
And it worked, that would be the cut
That would be the end of it
But this time, we all played it together
You know, before we went to the studio
When I say all, I'm just, it was just myself, Fernando, and Fred
