Wyatt Tuzo Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Saw this yesterday. What a sad day for the industry! There were very few like him, then or now... A deep talent and generous spirit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Reineke Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Sorry to hear this. I met Al at a NY studio in the 1990s. Nice guy and a legend in the music recording community. RIP Al.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Perkins Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Fave Al quote, in response to being asked if he was retired (@ 88): "Only when my phone doesn't ring.". RIP Al, a hero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izen Ears Posted May 5, 2021 Report Share Posted May 5, 2021 I just learned this fellow recorded Surfing With The Astronauts! WOW! Possibly the most epic of all surf albums, and widely acknowledged to have the most reverb of any surf record. Everything has reverb. Some people guess that plate reverb or room reverb was added to the complete mix. Sounds like a really incredible person, wish I knew him.
