Welcome to
my new, updated website. I'm really thrilled
to be able to share
my career memories and
current happenings with all of
you.
I
don't make "recordings". I make
"records".
That is, I use the studio to
create music that has radio
potential, and a life beyond
just sitting on the artists
shelf, only to be heard by
family and friends.
For me, it's all about passion,
drive and the thrill of the
hunt. To hear
my productions, songs, or
guitar on the radio, throughout
the world, is just as exciting
as when I first heard myself on
the air back in the late 60's.
And to know that each airplay
carries the promise of a
hit career for the artist I
produce, is the ultimate feeling
of success.
Recording has been my
lifeblood, and the studio my
home for 40 years. It's been a
long journey.....From Hollywood
to Nashville, China to Norway,
Australia to England the art of
recording has been a universal
thread, a world unto it's own
where I have shared so many
experiences with so many
talented individuals, the
legends, the unknowns, the hit
acts and the hungry acts. They
have all paraded through my
career for 4 decades, allowing
me to add a little of my talent
to their music. How lucky am I?
Records, Cassettes, 8
tracks, direct to disc, CDs,
analog, digital....the formats
may change as technology zooms
forward at the speed of light,
but one thing will always remain
a constant, and that's plain
old good music. With that always
in mind, I hope to continue my
life's work for many years to
come. The journey is far from
over and I'm still loving the
ride! "
John
