Abstract:
In an era when single-track downloads and online streaming dominate the recorded music landscape, we take a moment to celebrate the album as an art form. Mastering engineers behind some of the top recordings in history speak in depth about their work on those projects. They share fresh insights, behind-the-scenes anecdotes, rare photos, session notes, and audio clips from their historic sessions.

Panelists will discuss their work on landmark albums, including "Born in the USA," Michael Jackson's "Thriller," John Lennon's "Rock and Roll," Paul Simon's "Graceland," Johh Mayer's "Continuum," and more.
