Recording Vanilla Fudge Vocalist Mark Stein at Power Station Studios

For the past two weeks I’ve had the honor of working with one of music’s greats, Mark Stein. His group, Vanilla Fudge, made history with their version of the Supremes song “You Keep Me Hanging On”. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanilla_Fudge

Working on a new web series with Tony Bongiovi

We have just finished filming a series of interviews with music producer, engineer and inventor Tony Bongiovi.  He has a unique insight into the music industry during the 60′s, 70′s and 80′s due to his experiences at Motown Records in Detroit and a multitude of top recording studios in New York.  We have stories of his work with Jimi hendrix,  Talking Heads, Vanilla Fudge, The Ramones, Jon Bon Jovi, Gloria Gaynor and the incredible songwriting and engineering talent at Motown.  Anyone who is interested in how it all really went down from a technical and personal perspective will enjoy these interviews.  More information about when the first episode will be available can be found here, at the DPS Insider.
