About this listen

A Telegraph Book of the Year

As a renowned recording-studio maven, Trevor Horn has been dubbed 'the man who invented the '80s'.

His production work since the glory days of ZTT represents a veritable 'who's who' of intelligent modern pop, including the likes of ABC, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Paul McCartney, Rod Stewart, Pet Shop Boys, Seal, Simple Minds, Grace Jones and Yes - among many others.

This book is Trevor's story in his own words, as told through the prism of twenty-three of his most important songs - from the ones that inspired him to the ones that defined him.

This play-by-play memoir transports listeners into the heart of the studio to witness the making of some of music's most memorable moments, from the Buggles' ground-breaking 'Video Killed the Radio Star' to Band Aid's perennial 'Do They Know It's Christmas?', via hits such as 'Relax', 'Poison Arrow', 'Owner of a Lonely Heart' and 'Crazy'.

Offering unrivalled access to the dark arts of the producer's world and the even darker arts of the music business itself, prepare for some adventures in modern recording...

If you are looking for a book to teach you how to improve your recording skills or information on when to use a Shure SM57 this is not the book for you.
This book contains good stories about the era in studio recordings and music production when it hit its peak. It gives you a small glimpse into the personality’s of some of the great stars that Trevor horn worked with and introduces you to some of people that made his records sound so good people like Anne Dudley but if you are a nerd like me you would already know who she is

To a studio veteran like me Trevor is god
