Terry Manning's Studio Stories - From Zeppelin to ZZ Top

In this solo episode, Tom welcomes back legendary producer & engineer Terry Manning for another deep dive into his storied career. As Led Zeppelin toured the U.S. in 1970, it was Manning who masterfully mixed their seminal "Led Zeppelin III." Captivated by its unique sound, a young Billy Gibbons soon sought Manning's expertise. The partnership saw ZZ Top's sound transform from the raw blues-rock of "Tres Hombres" to the groundbreaking "Eliminator." Manning was instrumental in catapulting this unassuming Texas band to platinum success. Ever wondered how the lil' old band from Texas metamorphosed into a space-age, synth-boogie sensation? Then this episode is for you.
