Briggs's work was not universally acclaimed. Neal Smith of the Alice Cooper group later said "David (Briggs) hated our music and us. I recall the term that he used, referring to our music, was 'psychedelic shit'." I think Easy Action sounded too dry, more like a TV or radio commercial, and he did not help with song arrangement or positive input in any way."[6]

I'm familiar of course with the acrimony between Todd and Andy Partridge. And to my ears Skylarking is the best work that Todd has done as a producer for hire. But I wonder why most of these people put up with each other. I mean, if the parties mutually hate one another then why not void the contract
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:18pm

Objectively not the same at all - yet George evidently felt the same vibe while making both of them. Revolver is certainly an evolution from Rubber Soul, without which the '66 album would have sounded quite different.

'Producer' of course being a broad & vague term - the person essentially responsible for Producing an end Product to the Business creeps - or whomever. So can range from Business concerns (which should be Management or the Label Support ...or - simply saying - this is Okay, proceed & I *won't* interfere) - to creating the right creative atmosphere (like so to speak a theater director - using even negative psychology for motivation - or the reverse) ...to more of an Arranger (like Martin scoring for Beatles) - to overlap with the Engineer just getting the Sound Recorded. Or any possible combination of these.

I remember seeing them do this song live at The Bottom Line. One of the sisters had the coat this song was written about, which she proudly showed to the audience.

Well of course, there's bouncing, which unfortunately I had to do for several years until the fostex x-15 came out. The drawback with that of course is that it's set in stone as it were once it's done. But ironically enough ai digital audio separation is now allowing that to be undone

One '90s childhood memory which I'm *pretty* sure I didn't imagine is there was an entire episode of Tiny Toons (I think?) centered around the Roches, who appeared as anthropomorphic cockroaches.

I know I've said this here before, but the Canadian sketch comedy troupe Radio Free Vestibule did a great bit about a guy who only listens to bands with silly names, specifically Spookytooth, Mott the Hoople, and Belle Epoch. The skit ends with his friend tricking him into listening to "Hey Jude" by telling him the band is named Googlegax.
