Interview with Howard Leese (Part Two)
This podcast episode is Part Two of my recent interview with guitarist Howard Leese. In this segment we discuss working with great singers on Secret Weapon; why there are no comps or punches on the album; working as a producer with the sensitivities of singers; what it was like to work with Ann Wilson in the studio; the pros and cons of digital recording and mixing; why Bruce Springsteen deliberately overdubs mistakes onto his records; auto-tuning vocals; and the growing trend of artists playing to triggered tracks live and why it’s not right for rock and roll.
Stay tuned for Part Three, which I will post Thursday.
