He has worked with many artists at the top of their game including Lizzo, Beyonce, Ricky Martin, Maxwell, and a host of others. He also had the distinct pleasure of having a song named after him "Poor Goo". We learn the story behind the song and so much more.
Backstage with Susan Rogers and Dave Hampton
Dave Hampton and Susan Rogers, two highly successful and well-respected recording engineers, sit down with Wally’s All Access to talk about the state of the recording industry and how artist are responding, the importance of women and the role they played in Prince’s creativity and what it takes to “unlearn” Prince. Hear about the song that Susan would love to re-mix and how Dave was able to introduce new technologies to Prince and make it seamless. This is a show you don’t want to miss.
