댕기고 있는 SAE에 옵니다. 무려 3일동안 워크샵을 진행하는데요...

production, tracking and mixing session을 각각 3일동안 진행합니다... 물론 아쉽지만, 오픈이 아니라서
저희 학교 학생만 워크샵 참석이 가능하구요, 학생중에서도 빨리 등록한 선착순으로 들을수 있어 아쉽네요

저는 다행히도 전부다 들을수 있어서 행운이네요 ㅋㅋ

기회가 되면 여기도 거기서 배운 수업내용들을 업로드 해보겠습니다. 여튼 좋은하루 되시구요...

에디 크래머에 대한 상세 이력사항들을 밑에 표기해 놓겠습니다. *^^*

[edit] Career

[edit] 1960s
Eddie Kramer was born in South Africa, and as a child studied classical piano, cello and violin. He attended the prestigious South African College of Music to learn classical piano, but formed an interest in jazz. He moved to England at 19, where he recorded local jazz groups in a home studio and installed hi-fi equipment as a hobby. In 1964 he joined Pye Studios, recording artists including Sammy Davis Jr., Petula Clark and The Kinks.

In 1965 Kramer established KPS Studios and was later employed by Regent Sound to oversee construction of a new four-track studio.

He joined Olympic Sound Studios in London, where he engineered albums for acts including Traffic, Small Faces, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix, for whom Kramer engineered every album from Are You Experienced to The Cry of Love. After Hendrix's death he co-produced War Heroes, Rainbow Bridge and Hendrix in the West.

In 1968 Kramer moved to New York to work at the Record Plant, engineering Hendrix's Electric Ladyland LP and also worked with Vanilla Fudge, Joe Cocker and NRBQ. Working independently from 1969, Kramer engineered Led Zeppelin II – the first of five albums he engineered for the band.

Kramer added his own touch to "Whole Lotta Love" from Led Zeppelin II. He said, "At one point there was bleed-through of a previously recorded vocal in the recording of 'Whole Lotta Love.' It was the middle part where Robert [Plant] screams 'Wo-man. You need it.' Since we couldn't re-record at that point, I just threw some echo on it to see how it would sound and Jimmy [Page] said 'Great! Just leave it.'"[1]

In mid-1969 Kramer was hired to record the Woodstock Festival for both the album and the movie. The project was arduous, as he recalled: [1]"I arrived as dawn and was struck by the sight of the sun rising over what appeared to be the stage. The show was scheduled to start by lunch time. That panic pretty much set the tone for the entire concert. All of us in the crew had Vitamin B shots, so that we would be able to stay up for three days. The whole thing was recorded under the most primitive of conditions, but we got it done."

Kramer was director of engineering at Electric Lady Studios from 1970-1974, producing the posthumous Hendrix records, as well as albums by Carly Simon, Sha Na Na and Peter Frampton. While there he engineered albums for artists as diverse as Dionne Warwick and David Bowie.

In 1975 he left Electric Lady Studios to produce Kiss' Alive!, which began a long time association with the band. His engineering work included Led Zeppelin's The Song Remains the Same and Peter Frampton's Frampton Comes Alive!.


[edit] 1980s onward
Kramer produced Fastway, Anthrax and Twisted Sister, as well as country and classical acts including the Kentucky Headhunters and guitarist John Williams.

Kramer produced the Hendrix tribute album, Stone Free, featuring The Cure, Eric Clapton and Buddy Guy, raising $750,000 for the United Negro College Fund as musical scholarships to The Berkeley School of Music, The Juliard School of Music and The Dance Theatre of Harlem.

Kramer produced and engineered Buddy Guy's Slippin' In (1995), which received a 1996 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Record and a W.C. Handy Blues Foundation Album of the Year award. Buddy Guy and The Saturday Nite Live Band with G.E. Smith, was nominated for a 1996 Grammy Award.

He also produced In From the Storm (1995), a compilation of Hendrix tracks featuring: Sting, Steve Vai and Carlos Santana with the London Metropolitan Orchestra.


[edit] Other projects
Kramer has produced an instructional video, Adventures in Modern Recording, which features an interview with guitarist Les Paul. He has co-authored a Hendrix biography, Hendrix: Setting the Record Straight, with John McDermott.

형 이거 아무도 궁금해 하지 않을꺼 같아요.ㅋ
농담이구요, 내일 얼마나 대단한 사람인지 한번 보자구요!!!^^

훌륭한 일인데,, 안타까운 것은 67년도에도 현역에 계시던 분이 아직까지 계시다는 거겠죠. 앞으로 최소 10년은 더 하실 것 같은데,, 정년 정해놓은 것도 없고, 67년도에는 레코딩 엔지니어가 전세계에 100명이 안되었을텐데.. 지금은 아마 몇십만명은 넘을 것 같고,, 정확한 통계는 없을겁니다. 그정도겠거니 하는거지요.

다시생각해보니까 직업을 가져서 40년 정도 일한다는 것이 나쁜 것만은 아닌것 같습니다. 문제는 탑 클래스에서 40년동안 계신다는 것이 다른 사람의 길을 너무 많이 막는 것 아닌가.. 하는 생각이 있다는 거지만.. -수정했습니다-

ㅎㅎ.. 그 할아버지 아직도 건재하시군요...

3일동안이나 함께 하신다니 많은 걸 배우시길.. 특히 드럼 톤은 예술이니...(여전히 킥엔 담요뒤집어 씌우고 난리치겠죠?!! ㅋㅋ)

저두 2000년도에 그분 덕을 많이 봤습니다. 학교에서 웤샾할 때 2년 연속으로 어시스트한 덕에 외부작업에서도 콜을 맏았구 급기야 메이저 스튜됴에서 콜을 받았었는데...

마지막으로 뵌게 2004년 AES였던가 vintech 부스에서 열씨미 장비선전하시드만...반갑게 인사했건만 나이탓인지 잘 기억못하더군요... (결정적으로 내게 '고니찌와~~"하고 일본말로 인사했다는...쩝...)

혹시 모르니 MI 출신 "준"이 안부전하더라고 해주세요~~~

bz님의 댓글

Eddie Kramer !!
올해 NAMM 쇼 부스 어디엔가도 나왔던거 같은데

제가 아는 MI 출신 뮤지션한테 이분이랑 같이 레코딩세션 한 이야기를 들은적이 있는데
잣대가지고 다니면서 마이킹한다고 ^^

아무쪼록 좋은 경험하시길 바랍니다.
