They can make or break an album really...never seen a thread about em, just wondered who your favorites might be..i have a couple

Phil Spector - total lunatic but amazing producer

George Martin - the fifth beatle? (or 6th if you bear Murray the K in mind :lol:)

Steve Albini - very abrasive, very alternative (although kinda sheened out now)

people like Bill Price produced or was involved with a fair number of pretty stellar productions, the pistols, the clash, the who

Dr Dre - the hip hop midas touch, throw Dre in, money-maker like a motherfucker :)

i dunno, who are your favorites? or at least notable ones to your mind? :)

I'm curious to see if Dr. Dre's final album will be as big as The Chronic and 2001 -- both of those were huuuuuge. I don't really like rap anymore, but it'd be cool if he came in and wiped the floor with the stuff coming out nowadays.

the man did mix the Illusions - I don't know if that's good though.

We all love Jimmy Page as a guitarist and songwriter, but seriously, the man sucked at producing. The Zeppelin albums survive and thrive on the merits of their musicianship and songwriting, NOT on the quality of the sound.

Agreed. Producing good songs does not make you a good producer.

Making crap songs sound good makes you a good producer :lol:

I utterly disagree, especially with Zeppelin's later material, the more progressive stuff.
