An album-by-album account of working with iconic artists such as Anthony Kiedis, Michael Stipe, Gord Downie, and Bono, from a leader in the field.
Mark Howard, a record producer/engineer/mixer and a trailblazer in the industry, will take you through the star-studded world of recording and producing Grammy Award-winning artists. Listen Up! is an essential book for anyone interested in music and its making.

Music for estate agents
Not so much about the music but very detailed
Accounts of snapping up real estate in various location to turn into studios.
Also details of how vibes were achieved with layouts and furnishing.curious.
Not a fan of many of the records he had produced, still some fascinating anecdotes
And insights into the musicians he had worked with
Seems like they’re all pretty fucked in the head
Still really enjoyed listening to this book

Good book - annoying narration
This was slightly marred by a narrator who makes every paragraph sound like a Hollywood film trailer voiceover. This got really annoying after a while. It’s so contrived.
That apart, the content is excellent and the anecdotes illuminating. The man has worked with legends in a prolonged and quite intimate way. This is history - and for a long vanished time.
