A REAL PRODUCER because he was musican, composer and arranger. He knew style, had huge ears and how to stay out of the way at the right times.

Miles Davis was so fortunate to have him as his record producer during those years.

Very interesting clip; I didn't know Teo studied classical but it makes sense. He was a great producer of jazz records of course but I had no idea how broad his talents were.

The "him" Macero is referring to here is John Lurie. "His brother" is Evan Lurie.
