So farewell then...

Dr.Pill's picture

Roger (The Immortal) Nichols.

Celebrated, if for nothing else after an illustrious engineering career, for having his disembodied hand on the faders on the back of Countdown to Ecstasy.

A great music man

Elliott Randall posted a link to this interview yesterday. He was obviously an important part of the SD sound. RIP Roger The Immortal

Still love that photo.

The trigger for one of the earliest Mark Ellen "Relax, girls, they're married" captions.

A quick image search shows that Roger Nichols was a good-looking bloke. Probably explains why they'd only let him have his hand in the photograph.

The best band

and the best engineer. The Nightfly is perfection for me.

Ah, the seventies.

When you could safely put the sand-filled ashtray by the side of the mixing desk, out of the way.
