- CHOM 97 7's Randy Renaud caught up with legendary Canadian music producer Bob Ezrin. He talked about raising money alongside U2's The Edge for Hurricane Katrina relief efforts, working with Peter Gabriel on Solsbury Hill, his fallout with Roger Waters and more.
Bob is legend. Great interview.
Used to listen to RR 25 to 30 years ago or more on CHOM. Didn't realize he was still around, he sounds exactly the same. For what Bob Ezrin accomplished on The Wall, I am eternally grateful.
Ezrins work in the studio is stunning. I do not know how else to put it.
Peter Gabriel’s debut album is fantastic. It’s a snapshot of Peter’s search for identity at the time with a wide range of styles. Each song stands on its own contributing to a great experience for the entire album. Peters perfectionist tinkering (on all his albums) is what a good producer doesn’t tolerate. Good for Bob for drawing the line in the sand.
Brilliant interview, what a storied producer life of this living legend.
This was a great interview. Bob Ezrin has quite a story to tell.
Great interview! Thanks a lot. Some people aged like fine wine. My compliments to Bob for his excellent work with Alice Cooper, Kiss, Pink Floyd, etc. Just can't imagine how the world of music will look like without him.
Great interview. Always nice to listen to someone with character. Like Bob.
Great interview. Bob seems like a genuine, down-to-earth world class producer. lf his only output was 'Under My Wheels' and 'Solsbury Hill' l would tip my cap to him.
Probably one of the top 5 producers of all time.
Great interview with Toronto Bob Ezrin Randy. I love the story of how he wound up producing Peter Gabriel and Lou Reed. Berlin is probably my fav Bob Ezrin production other than Love It To Death and Billion Dollar Babies. Although Gabriel's first record was great, his 2nd produced by Robert Fripp is my fav Gabriel solo record.
I saw the name "Toronto Bob" on my beloved Love it to Death album back in the 70s, and as a Canadian my ears perked up. This country has been blessed to have mega-producers like Jack, Bob ... and Daniel Lanois. Three of the best to ever do it. And the new generation like 40 are obviously making their mark.
Great to hear some Jack Richardson love. He was my production teacher in college and I learned a ton from him, as well as got to listen to the master tapes of the Guess Who and get the skinny on Cooper records.
I have always wanted to work with Bob Ezrin!! I love his body of work.
Really excellent and insightful interview with an intelligent human being.
I’m a huge fan of Bob’s work. Very interesting interview. I’m also a huge fan of Floyd. I am puzzled how the discussion digressed to inferring Roger Waters is an antisemite. Bob was correct in stating the policies of the government of Israel are troubling. That’s what Roger states. Roger also denounced the violence committed by Hamas and others. Is Roger antisemitism solely because he supports BDS? I’m sorry but antisemitism is well defined and the Jewish population cannot redefine it to fit their needs. Criticizing the policies of the Israeli government is in no way speaking against the Jewish people or the practice of Judaism. Roger advocates for human rights for all, including Jews! He may not be a likable guy but that is a completely different discussion.
... this guy is growing on me. He seems philisophical about his own existence, which makes him relateable and likeable.
Hamilton Ontario was 2 years prior to the Montreal show and was also the last show of the 1975 N American tour
Great interview - it explains Waters behaviour.
Bob Ezrin is a brilliant producer : listen to the record ' Berlin ' from Lou Reed.
