Jimmy Douglass started his studio career as a part-time tape copier in the early 1970s at the Atlantic Records studios in New York City. There he learned how to operate the studio's custom made 16-channel console and observed the work of great engineers and record producers including Tom Dowd, Jerry Wexler and Arif Mardin. For his first time behind the faders, he was encouraged by Wexler to record demos. |
