Faces of Music
By Mix Editors
Artist Pro, an imprint of Thomson Course Technology PTR, recently announced the publication of Faces of Music:
25 Years of Lunching with Legends by Mr. Bonzai.
On September 29, 1967, Bonzai attended his very first recording session at the invitation of John Lennon. The location was London's EMI Studios, now Abbey Road, and the song was I Am the Walrus. In attendance were George, Paul, Ringo, producer George Martin and engineer Ken Scott. This privileged session with the most influential rock band in history set the stage for a life exploring the world of music and recording. In 1980, Mr. Bonzai settled in Hollywood to begin this collection of photographs and words.
The anthology features more than 400 photographs, many never-before published, and 160 interviews with popular music artists, songwriters, producers and recording engineers including Jimmy Buffet, Ed Cherney, Leonard Cohen, Devo, Geoff Emerick, Peter Gabriel, Herbie Hancock, Eddie Kramer, k.d. lang, David Lynch, George Massenburg, George Martin, Robert Moog, Willie Nelson, Phil Ramone, Carlos Santana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Al Schmitt, Bruce Swedien, Don Was, Brian Wilson, Stevie Wonder and Frank Zappa.
Bonzai's work has appeared in Rolling Stone, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Billboard, Mix, EQ, Sound & Recording, Daily Variety and Hollywood Reporter, among numerous others.
Bonzai will be at the Thomson Course Technology PTR Booth #775, October 7 and 8 at 2 P.M. to sign copies of the book. During the AES show, books will be on sale at a 25 percent discount at the booth.
