I love his stuff. I think he's one of those guys who tries to coax the
artist's own vision out into the open, and his ears are impeccable. His
Willie & Waylon records may be masterpieces, and his Bonnie stuff
rocked. Good man. His records sound like a guy with good taste did them,
which I consider to be the Grail. They sound sort of "round" and real,
like real musicians playing real music. Or something. And he uses a Focusrite.
