Hey, guys-
My first post here, but I've been a subscriber to Tape Op magazine for many many years, and LOVE it.
I'm a musician in Chicago, in a band that's getting ready to record; we are vocals, 12-string, drums, bass, electric guitars, piano, cello, viola, and violin. Kind of somewhere in-between Leonard Cohen/ Nick Drake and Led Zeppelin/ early soul, if we are doing it right...
I'm a fan of recordings pre-1969 and am trying to find a producer here that really likes that era of sound. As in, fanatical about it. Any advice as to how to find the right Recording Artist for our group? We really want to find someone as interested in the art of creative recording as a Brian Eno was. Does anyone know of anyone in Chicago?
Thanks,
T
Time-travelling engineers in Chicago...?

Mark Rubel is down in Champaign and an avid student AND teacher of recoring history. On top of that, he's a really creative and totally nice guy and I can't think of another guy in the midwest more qualified to make a successful recording like what you describe. Mark has an excellent collection of period-appropriate equipment at his studio (Pogo), including many choice pieces of gear given to him by Bill Putnam. Mark's also really fearless when it comes to any kind of recording technique or experimentation.
Did I mention that he's a totally awesome guy, too?
