steve, I don't know whether you are a bowie fan or not but I'm quite sure you would know the album Ziggy Stardust. The production on that album was always funny to me when I wasn't caught up in how brilliant the songs were..it sounds tinny, extreme reverb, and not at all matching the in-your-face tone that his live shows took in that era. Even the heavier parts/songs still sound removed (the only exception being Ronson's outro in moonage daydream). Do you think this was intentional as far as making this music sound outter-space prophet style and beginning the fiction of the persona, or just more unintentional factors. I mean bowie sounds like he's singing off the top of a mountain a lot of the time. Wondering if that was ever a point of intrigue for you and any comments you might have as a man of experience.

Cocaine makes you want to hear things extra-bright. One client of mine even described a particularly nasal vocal effect as being exactly "like when you shoot coke and get a ringer (whining tinnitus) and it sounds like you're in a tube..."

Other than that, I haven't really thought about it. I was never much of a Bowie fan, and I haven't spent a lot of time listening to his music in detail.
