George Michael… December 25, 2016

george Absolutely gutted to get this news today. George was one of the most gifted pop songwriters and producers that ever lived. Like most true geniuses he was very troubled and I had hoped he would pull out of the latest to live for another era. The second British invasion had an enormous impact on my musical life, to the point where it drove me to London.  I met George for the first time at Limelight in 1986. My thoughts go out to Chris Porter, and everyone at SARM from the old days.

George wrote “Careless Whisper” when he was 17.  What more is there to say!

None better…..EVER!

Burt on the mind as I finish the theme to “LBFD”.

Looking to bring some serious magic with some very special people into “Church 1”, later this year.

George Martin was the greatest record producer who ever lived. He was the most influential and seminal record producer who ever lived.  He made the greatest A&R signing in the history of recorded music, and was the steward of the greatest band in the history of popular music. Popular music doesn’t exist as it does today without his direct influence.

To myself and all of my brothers in the MPG, George was the standard bearer  of excellence, vision, and risk taking to which we all try to hold ourselves.

I had the enormous privilege and honor of knowing this great man for 18 years.  My thought’s go out to Giles, Lady Judy and Family.

The music awards season in London was a welcome break from the production shooting of my financial thriller “London Bridges Falling Down” which wrapped principal photography on site at London Fashion Week. The Producers Guild Awards were the highlight of, and the best night of the year. Gorgeous British actress Laura Bingham, the co-star of my film, was my guest for the evening and she made quite a splash. I got to introduce Laura to much of the leadership of the music industry and even got well wishes from Boy George (the first time we’ve met) who a was a really sweet guy and completely taken in by her. Paul Epworth deservedly won producer of the year again, and we got to see everyone from September Management and XL. Good to see old friends Mick Glossop, Tony Platt, Tommy D and Sue Sillitoe as well. What a night!
