Our weekly series of interviews with people behind the scenes, behind the technology, and behind the music.
This week’s guest is producer Shel Talmy. He’s a veritable founding father of rock, having produced early classics by The Who, The Kinks, The Easybeats, and other bands of the 1960s British Invasion. We talk about taking chances – how being a brash American got him his first breaks, about bucking convention to get the sound he wanted, and what’s changed since the ’60s (and what hasn’t).
