Great New Book "Behind the Glass, Volume II"

Our pal, Howard Massey, has a new book out,<em>Behind The Glass Volume II</em>. Volume I was a real treat, and Howard also co-wrote Geoff Emerick's excellentHere, There and Everywhere: My Life Recording the Music of the Beatles. There's a ridiculous amount of interviews, and Howard says, "Highlights include Larry Levine (Phil Spector's longtime engineer) deconstructing the Wall of Sound and in-depth chats with Daniel Lanois, Trevor Horn, and former Beatles assistant engineers Richard Lush and John Kurlander. Hope everyone enjoys reading the book as much as I enjoyed writing it!"
