But I know what songs he HAS produced sound like and I know which ones I like and which ones I don't.
Dave is great with some artists who bring an edge, but when they don't, I think he subtracts from them rather than enhances.
I don't care if he is respected in the business or not. I used to have those albums he did with Rhona Mitra and I detested them. I also dislike a lot of his Tom Petty stuff, it's about half and half. I thought he would be good with Stevie, but don't think he would be any good with Christine. I think the results would be horrid.
But the fact is, Dave will not be producing any of Christine's songs. He may produce some songs that she sings on and I hope all of his fans enjoy it.
