The long-awaited conversation with producer Chris Thomas, recorded at the White Album Symposium in Monmouth University.
Audio deficiencies with the sound due to the electrical system; deficiencies in my voice due to an ill-timed tribute to George’s Dark Horse Tour.
Thanks to Ben Rowling Joe Rapolla, Dr. Kenneth Womack and everyone at Monmouth University.
Fantastic interview….thanks!
Chris Thomas: Producer: Badfinger and Sex Pistols! Enough said. Huge fan. Thank you!
Unlike some folks who, despite their experiences, lack the ability to compellinging share them, Chris Thomas could keep you transfixed indefinitely.
Brilliant!
And R.R., you hit all the right notes and asked all the right questions.
What a way to end 2018, a true Year of The Beatles.
Cheers,
Rick
Thanks Rick – Happy New Year!
Great interview Robert, and great to hear CT’s stories. TY
That’s the best podcast you have done (at least in your “solo” years), excellent.
What a fantastic listen! Wonderful to hear another voice dismiss the old ‘white album sessions were a nightmare’ line.
Out of interest, did Chris not have much to do with Abbey Road? I was hoping for a few wee insights into the making of that LP (although again, nice to hear another notion dismissed, namely the phone call to GM to come and produce one last album).
Brilliant! So interesting.
Great interview. Thanks for the shout out. You guys sounded great!
…I also love that it’s in stereo!
Awesome show! Thank you!
Let’s not forget Chris Thomas produced some great albums for INXS.
He is definitely one of the great producers and the fact he cut his teeth on the White Album is amazing.
This is a great historical record. Chris’ uncoloured observations are great.
Chris might write a book using this recording as a guide because … frankly nobody lives forever and getting real front seat views of music that will be classics for centuries, people will like to know the context the times and goings on when the music struggled to be born.
Who wouldn’t want to know the thoughts and musing of classical music composers centuries ago. Getting insight to the hard work and that inspirational flash of clarity would be uplifting.
Here is chance to do it with our generations music.
