Sunset Sound Recording Studios
Hollywood, CA.

Helped design and build Studio 3 of this incredible studio while employed there as a staff engineer in the late '70's. It was a university to me, working with the finest engineers, producers, artists, technical gurus, and studio management in the recording world, then and now. Thanks to one and all for the lessons, you know who you are. I could not� do what I do now without you, and the leessons from this wonderful period in my life.

If you are not familiar with the huge contribution this studio and it's owners, staff, and guest artists, enngineers, and producers have made to the music world throughout it's history, you need to be. Check them out on the web at www.sunsetsound.com
