Best Producers - #6 Mutt Lange


Recommended Posts

South African, not as prolific as others, but what he does produce are some of the most era-defining albums of our genre.

AC/DC - Highway to Hell, Back in Black, For Those About to Rock

Def Leppard - High N Dry, Pyromania, Hysteria, Adrenalize 

Foreigner - 4

Romeo’s Daughter - Romeo’s Daughter 

Bryan Adams - Waking Up the Neighbours

 

What's your favourite Mutt Lange production from those above, or other?

Hysteria

my fav album so speaks for itself

...he didn't produce Adrenalize that was Mike Shipley :whistle:

My bad. He was listed as Executive Producer for Adrenalize. Whatever that is.

He was busy working with Bryan Adams on Waking Up...but he co-wrote the songs and helped with the several of the arrangements on Adrenalize.  My pick for his best production would be Hysteria.

Yeah read one time that he offered Leppard the track "Touch The Hand" and they were up for it as a potential single...Adams found out and kept it for Waking Up...it does ooze of Leppard though (pretty much the whole of Waking Up... does :) )

Interesting, I hadn't heard that, but considering the similarities in style it makes sense that something like that transpired during those recording sessions

All the Def Lepp and AC/DC stuff. Foreigner 4 was a huge album too. I like some of his other 'Forgotten' stuff too, namely the excellent Broken Home 'S/T', City Boy 'The Day The Earth Caught Fire', Outlaws 'Playin' To Win' and the debut Motors album which are all excellent. Brilliant producer
