This week in the Thanking The Greats Series, we want to thank musician and producer extraordinaire Beau Hill. If you were a fan of 80s hard rock, you most likely had a record that Beau Hill produced. He was responsible for producing some of my favorite records in the 80s including Ratt, Warrant, Kix, and Winger just to name a few.
In the “Thanking The Greats Series” we will explore and discuss an individual Artist, Producer, Song Writer, Manager, or just about anyone involved in the music business we think has had a long career and contributed to the music we grew up loving. Oh and while we are at it, we will also select and play a few tunes we dig that are related to that individual.
More About Beau Hill

He also played instruments and sang backing vocals for some of the artists that he produced, as well as for his own bands Airborne (which had a record released in 1979 on Columbia), and Shanghai, who both released albums in the early 1980s. Hill was one of the founding partners of Interscope Records.
