Great book about the music industry at its best. What an amazing career Glyn Johns had. Great read and great guy.

Fascinating achievements but... Enjoyed learning more about Glyn’s body of work it after a while it’s more a line listing of names and songs and not enough stories and his perspectives of making and producing music.

Fascinating but poorly written and edited. Some fascinating inside stories, ranging from the poignant and hilarious to the petty an absurd, from Glyn Johns who engineered, mixed, produced and helped create some of the landmark music of the 1960s and 70s, and socialized with many of the musicians, their managers and coteries. If you like the popular music from the 1960s and 70s, you will probably enjoy Sound Man. Unfortunately Johns’s storytelling suffers from too many dead clichés, limp metaphors and weary platitudes. Had the book been ghost written or Penguin Random House assigned a competent editor, we would have a much more readable work. Johns must not have kept a diary or journal but rather written Sound Man from recall; it has that feel to it and given Johns’s 50 years in the music recording industry, I thought there would be many more stories that would make it into Sound Man.

Incredible Career. The number of huge, seminal albums in which the author has been involved is astounding. His success seems to be a combination of talent, humility, and how productive one can be without drugs and alcohol.
