With his recent passing, I've looked back at the long list of albums he participated in as either producer or engineer. The 7 albums to choose from are among my personal favorites, but I know there are many others that have popular followings, so I've also included the ever-popular "Other" option.
RTB trivia: the final album he produced (unless someone can show me otherwise) was Heaven and Earth (2014) by Yes. |

From the list my fave is The Cars' self-titled, but I did vote other for The Cars' Candy-O. I have a sentimental attachment to that album.

Queen - AN@tO is my favorite album all round. But regardless, all of the albums listed have excellent production.

Hi,
I might want to see if Paul is willing to post a complete list, so the choices and ideas are better represented. I think Queen's album deserves the mention, but I'm not sure it is the only one! Other albums that we know well and appreciate! (Not complete btw) Nazareth - Nazareth Black Widow - Sacrifice Hawkwind - Hall of the Mountain Grill Man - Rhinos, Winos and Lunatics Be-Bop Deluxe - Futurama Ian Hunter - Overnight Angels The Cars - The Cars Journey - Infinity (and then Evolution the next year) Foreigner - Head Games Cheap Trick - One on One Motley Crue - Too Fast for Love East of Eden - East of Eden He also worked with many others not listed here like Guns N'Roses, Alice Cooper, Pilot, Ozzy Osborne, Devo, The Stranglers, Dusty Springfield and others. Hawkwind's album is fantastic and side 1 of that LP was a massive treat and plays well all the way through. Man's album is already the decline of the band. They could not get enough appreciation for their playing in the USA ... and it continued as a band under the radar until the end, but all of the albums prior to this one, are excellent and worth having!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Head Games was rather a disappointment after the first two albums.... but still much better than that horrendous (but ultra-successful) 4 coming up.

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |
