John Lennon. Aerosmith. Cheap Trick.
These are just a few of the iconic acts that legendary producer / engineer Jack Douglas has lent his talent to. With 40 Gold and Platinum records and several Lifetime Achievement awards to his name, Jack Douglas has played an integral role in the creation of the most celebrated music ever crafted. From engineering such masterpieces as John Lennon’s Imagine and engineering/producing the Lennon / Yoko Ono Grammy-Award winning Double Fantasy, to engineering/producing Aerosmith’s groundbreaking multi-platinum albums Toys In The Attic, Rocks, Get Your Wings, and Draw The Line, to Cheap Trick’s self-titled debut album and their historic Live At Budokan, his work helped set the template for many records to come.
Working his up way at the famed Record Plant studios, from janitor to a prominent position behind the boards, Douglas cemented working relationships with Patti Smith, Blue Oyster Cult, and the New York Dolls, as well as David Bowie, Stevie Wonder, Alice Cooper, Bob Dylan, George Harrison, and many others.
He continues to work with both established and emerging artists.
