Who Is Glyn Johns (?), Glad You Asked – The Rolling Stones [VIDEO]

There's very few behind-the-scenes figures as important in the creation of rock music as the engineer and producer Glyn Johns.

Just some of the artists he worked with in the studio include The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, The Who, Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton, The Clash, The Kinks, The Small Faces, Humble Pie, and The Faces, there's proof in the pudding right there as to his accomplishments.

Johns, who's 73 now recounts his momentous musical saga in his recent autobiography, Sound Man. The way he saw, and heard it, Johns relives the making of classic recordings from his historic six-decade career.

The Rolling Stones:

Johns put time in with working with The Rolling Stones on the 1965 album, 'December's Children (and Everybody's)', then on 'Beggars Banquet','Let It Bleed', 'Sticky Fingers', 'Exile On Main St'., 'It's Only Rock 'n Roll' and 'Black And Blue', among other Stones albums.

"Working with The Stones for all those years certainly had some amazing moments and I am proud to have been associated with them during a period when their music was so influential." (Glyn Johns).

Charlie (Watts) summed it up perfectly on his experience of being in the band for fifty years he replied, "Ten years of working and forty years of hanging around."
