Man, they're dropping like flies...
I've wondered my whole life which of the five fireflies would be the first to go.

RIP Martin Birch.
I wish he had a biography, or did more interviews. There really isn't much out there about his early engineering days. As an engineer myself, I’ve always loved his approach. I only really remember one quote about Then Play On where he said Green and Kirwan mainly worked on their songs alone in the studio. This is easy to hear in Closing My Eyes, Show-biz Blues, When You Say, Although the Sun is Shining etc. For a long album, there really aren’t a lot of band songs besides the jams, Coming Your Way, Before the Beginning, One Sunny Day, and maybe a couple more. Perhaps that’s why Like Crying is such a treat. |

I don't really know who will be the first but I'd bet money on who will be the last

Are goats known particularly for their longevity?

•Martin Birch was regarded as a 'genius' and worked with heavy metal icons •Birch produced albums for bands such as Whitesnake and Black Sabbath in 80s •His most famous and iconic productions included 10 albums for Iron Maiden •Birch retired in 1992 after the release of Iron Maiden's album Fear of the Dark Tributes have been paid to Martin Birch, the British music producer behind iconic albums from bands including Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath and Deep Purple. Black Sabbath founding members Geezer Butler and Tony Iommi joined Whitesnake frontman David Coverdale in conveying their sympathies after news broke at the weekend. Martin Birch, who died aged 71 on Sunday, was born in Woking, Surrey, in 1948, and worked first as an sound engineer for bands including Fleetwood Mac, Rainbow and Deep Purple. Martin Birch and his work with Iron Maiden 1981 - Killers (producer, engineer) 1982 - The Number of the Beast (producer, engineer) 1983 - Piece of Mind (producer, engineer, mixing) 1984 - Powerslave (producer, engineer, mixing) 1985 - Live After Death (producer, engineer, mixing)[19] 1986 - Somewhere in Time (producer, engineer, mixing) 1988 - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son (producer, engineer, mixing) 1989 - Maiden England (producer, engineer, mixing) 1990 - No Prayer for the Dying (producer, engineer, mixing) 1992 - Fear of the Dark (producer, engineer, mixing) He also worked on multiple albums with Rainbow, Blue Öyster Cult and produced the first six Whitesnake records between 1978 and 1984. In 1980, he was asked to work on Heaven and Hell for Black Sabbath as a producer, thanks to his previous work with singer Ronnie James Dio - the singer who replaced Ozzy Osbourne in 1979. Birch was credited with freshening up the band's sound through his work on Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules. In 1981, Birch began working exclusively with Iron Maiden in the 1980s and produced some of his most iconic work with the heavy metal band starting with the album Killers and finishing with Fear of the Dark. After the release of the latter - his tenth Iron Maiden record - Birch retired in 1992. David Coverdale said: 'It is with a very heavy heart I've just had verified my very dear friend & producer Martin Birch has passed away. 'Martin was a huge part of my life...helping me from the first time we met through until Slide It In...My thoughts & prayers to his family, friends & fans.' Geezer Butler, the bassist from Black Sabbath, said: 'Really sad to hear of the passing of Martin Birch. Brilliant producer. Had the pleasure of working with him on the Black Sabbath albums #HeavenandHell and #MobRules Condolences to Vera and family #RIPMartin' Black Sabbath band mate and guitarist Tony Iommi added: 'So shocked to hear the sad news of Martin Birch's passing. Martin was a lovely guy and a great producer - he produced Heaven and Hell and The Mob Rules for Sabbath. 'He will be deeply missed and my thoughts go out to his family. R.I.P.' Ronnie James Dio's widow Wendy described Martin as a 'genius and a very dear friend of Ronnie's'. Describing his skills, Birch previously said: 'I don't consider myself a super-technician, what I do is to me pretty simple, but the fact that I'm used to the bands I have worked with helps me to know instantly what they want, or even what they can achieve, even if they don't realize it clearly themselves.' A cause of death has not been released at this stage. |
