Grammy award-winning producer Jeffrey Weber has returned to United Recording Studios in Hollywood with jazz luminary Clifford Lamb. The celebrated jazz pianist/composer from the SF Bay Area has recorded six albums with Weber, mostly at United.
Grammy and Emmy-award winning engineer, Clark Germain, is the engineer of choice for Weber. Weber and Germain have been working together for over thirty years, primarily in the live to two-track or live to multitrack formats. Their preferred recording process is live, with no mixing, editing or overdubbing. "I prefer to capture a live performance, rather than manufacture one," says Weber. "I feel that live recording is sonically excellent, emotionally dramatic, and financially practical. Performers have to be confident in their art and fearless in the performance of their art. As you might imagine, this manner of recording is not for everyone."
