It was the sixties after all...

hi all, a little off topic but vinnie's comment 'if they remembered' reminded me, could we get a ledge Q&A with martin birch - engineered/produced tpo through mtm. about technical stuff he might remember ? z

ps - i agree with what vinnie said earlier in the thread about analog/vinyl vs mp3s and other digital formats

That would be cool. we can ask him what sony/cbs did with all that material.
so much of that era rock recordings were taped over, trashed or otherwise neglected.
For Fleetwood Mac who recorded at a variety of studios and "labels", such as Immediate, Warner etc it could be all of the above

I agree, I've thought for quite awhile that Martin Birch would be a key person to hear from.

I'm sure there are various ways, but a quick check showed he's on Facebook, and it looks like it's possible to send him a message through that site:

I think the number is Beachwood 45789.

I'll look around the internet, maybe Mr. Birch's information is somewhere.
