Les Paul, Has to be top of the list!
Andy Wallace
John Kurzweg
the OLD Rick Rubin (beastie boys, slayer, danzig days)
Jimmy Page
T-Bone Burnett, c'mon Oh brother where are thou still just sounds amazing
Terry Date
Andy Johns
pre incubus Brendan O'brien work
Frank Zappa
Kevin Shirley

sure i am missing some.

i can think of many others i like or had a album i really like but then they dont have the consistancy of some of these other guys. someone like Phil Gross who did sevendust animosity, still one of the best sounding metal albums ever.

I honestly think it's pronounced Lord- "algee," but I could be wrong.

I have alot of favs..but my top 5....


Sly & Robbie (outside of reggae - Grace Jones, Rolling Stones, Bill Laswell, Sinead O'Conner and every other recording act on the planet)

Steven Stanley (Tom Tom Club, Black Uhuru, Grace Jones - hands down THE best engineer (and excellent producer) in the Caribbean (and one of the best in the world) - the only engineer I will gladly pay to mix my material.

Bill Laswell - from jazz to dub....amazing

Prince - People still don't know the level of talent this man has a musician and producer.

Marvin Gaye - the sounds this man had in his head....
