The Entire Pet Sounds album by the Beach Boys.
Well, now that my work has been fully trashed by you folks, I could ask why you (presumably) purchased the albums in the first place, if you hated the production? For thew record, 2 members of Motley Crue were actively shooting heroin during all three albums, and when they went to record with Bob, they were totally clean. Does make some difference. Nikki approved all 3 records before I handed them in, and sat in on the mixes. If he thought they sucked, why did he rehire me twice? Why did he completely fabricate what went on in the studio in his "Heroin Diaries"? Similarly, Dee Snider sat in on the mix and approved "Stay Hungry". Why did Stay Hungry sell 4 million albums and his remake of it sell a total of 30,000? Dee is quite the hypocrite, being completely affable and friendly during the sessions and then dissing my work afterward. I've emailed him twice, asking him to have me on his radio show to tell my side of the story, but have not had a reply. Why? Cheap Trick blamed everybody who ever had anything to do with them for whatever they failed to achieve. And I did three albums with them, too. Rick rehired me twice-- how come? And how come George Martin produced the album which followed "Dream Police", and it was a stiff? You folks on this forum are certainly free with your armchair criticism. It reads as though I had personally insulted this guy "Aeroplane", who repeatedly trashes my work. And BOC was very happy with the record -- especially Donald (Buck).
Maybe we can have a productive discourse, and maybe I can answer some of your questions, if you'll actually consider that there are indeed two sides to every story.
