Legendary producer DOUG McBRIDE of GRAVITY STUDIO’S CHICAGO is ambushed into a professional deep dive on the production and subsequent re-master(s) of KISS‘s seminal 1977 salvo, the EDDIE KRAMER produced ‘LOVE GUN‘ album. A fascinating a look at the production practices in New York & LA in the 70’s, the evolution of drum sounds by the 80’s and “the sound wars that pummeled rock & roll” as albums got remastered for CD in the 90’s and then again today for online consumption, losing the depth & punch of analog recordings.
