Love Glenn Ballard, hate Brendan OBrien. I talked about how Ramone captures performances and Dashut draws out the best in an artist, I think that OBrien is just the opposite on both accounts. His production seems to often get in the way of the artist instead on enhancing them (just go get a copy of "The Thorns" if you don't think so) and many of his albums actually sound better when you go see the band live. I think that having a relationship with Pearl Jam has made him much more famous than he deserves to be.

I don't mean to be disrespectful, it's just my opinion.
