Phil Ramone comes to Mcgill

15-time Grammy Award winning producer Phil Ramone will speak this afternoon at McGill. Ramone’s resume includes a number (huge understatement)  of noteworthy accomplihttp://www.radarlake.com/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post=20shments incuding producing Getz/Gilberto which contains the most famous version of the Girl From Ipanema and producing Billy Joel’s 52nd Street, the first album to be released on CD (it also went on to win the Grammy for album of the year). I’ll sprinkle in a couple more names without coming even close to exhausting the list: Madonna, Ray Charles and  Paul McCartney. And Frank Sinatra. And Paul Simon.

And no. He’s not related to The Ramones.

The talk starts at 5pm at Tanna Schulich Hall, New Music Building, 527 Sherbrooke St. West. Enter via 555 Sherbrooke St. West.
