This Day In Charles Dye History
Charles Dye
Why?
Because my man Charles Dye is “off to the NEWS!”
1999, Ricky Martin started a three week run at No.1 on the UK singles chart with ‘Livin’ La Vida Loca’. A US No.1 for 5 weeks. The song was the first No.1 song to be recorded, edited, and mixed totally on a DAW (digital audio workstation).
Yep, the Dye-Man was the first to achieve this historic milestone. Congratulations!
And, two other tidbits from music history, on this very day…
1992, a range of eight ‘ties’, designed by Jerry Garcia of The Grateful Dead went on sale in the US. President Bill Clinton bought a set. The collection grossed million in the US by the end of the year.
1971, The Bruce Springsteen Band opened for Humble Pie at the Sunshine In, Asbury Park in New Jersey. After the show an impressed Peter Frampton from Humble Pie, tells Springsteen and the band he’d like to have them open for them on a national basis. Frampton also said he would be happy to get the band an audition with his record label, A & M Records. For no logical reason Springsteen’s manager Tinker West declined both offers on the spot.
While you’re at it, if you haven’t checked out Charles Dye’s most excellent DVD mixing course Mix It Like A Record, why haven’t you? Your ears and your mixes will thank you!
