  1. Good, this partly answers my questions on your most recent post.

    However what do you think people like Jake Gosling would have brought to the table. How important is their role in creating the album?

    I suggest that you provide a brief summary of the role of a producer.

  2. I think that the role of the producer is very important because they have to mimic exactly what the artist wants the album to sound like and what the public want to hear. To do this the producer has to have a good understanding of the artist and what they want. They then need to gather the exact recordings they need to make songs sound good and rearrange them to make them sound even better. I think this is highly important because an album can completely change an artists career.
