  • Bob Ezrin – Primary Wave Music
    BOB EZRIN en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Ezrin The phrase “super-producer” is often used when discussing Bob Ezrin – and with good reason. After all, the Toronto native has been behind the boards of many classic albums, among them Alice Cooper’s Billion Dollar Babies, KISS’ Destroyer, and Pink Floyd’s The Wall. He has also done much to help preserve music education in Canada in the face of devastating government funding cuts. Bob Ezrin was born March 25, 1949, into a musical Toronto family in which his mother played piano and his father, bass. Ezrin’s grandfather, a musical theatre amateur, taught him to dance to Al Jolson’s “Me and My Shadow” when Ezrin was just two. Ezrin went on to learn classical piano at Toronto’s Royal Conservatory of Music and spent off-hours as a teen taking in the likes of Joni Mitchell at his uncle’s music club, The Penny Farthing in the mid-‘60s. At age 19 he was taken under the wing of The Guess Who producer Jack Richardson who sent him to fellow producer Phil Ramone’s Eastman School of Music “boot camp” in Rochester, New York. Upon his return, Richardson sent Ezrin to New York to check out shock rocker Alice Cooper, whose manager Shep Gordon was insistent Richardson produce them. Ezrin was blown away by Cooper’s performance at Max’s Kansas City and ended up co-producing the band’s 1971 album Love It to Death with the initially reluctant Richardson. Ezrin would go on to work with Cooper multiple times, including on his most recent record, 2011’s Welcome 2 My Nightmare.

    TITLE: SHEP GORDON LSS 1004 (26:16) FIRST AIR DATE: 9/27/16 I read about Colonel Parker, who managed Elvis Presley, coming to Hawaii and renting some beach houses in some story. A journalist had done a story. And I had a good friend here, Uncle Tom Moffatt, who I called and said, Do you know those houses? And he said, Oh, yeah, I rented it for him ‘cause I did the show. So, it was at a time when I was smoking two or three packs of cigarettes a day, and I had a fairly large office, and I offered anyone who wanted in my office to quit smoking to come with me to Hawaii. And I rented on Kahala Beach the houses that the Colonel had rented. And … we all landed, we threw our cigarettes out the window. I’m sorry to say, we weren’t that environmentally conscious at the time. And … I ran into the wrong crowd in Honolulu. It was like being back in Hollywood; it was all the same, for me, from my view. I ended up going to the Imperial Hotel every night to a dive bar in the bottom room where … who knows what was going on. And I told Tom; I said, You know, I want to try another island. And he had, I think, Kalapana playing in Maui. And in those days, it was a hydrofoil. So, I said, Can I come? And he said, Sure, I’ll let you sell tee-shirts. So, him and his son Troy and I went over to sell tee-shirts.

    Welcome to Hollywood ...Now What? An inspiring collection of blogs by BRIAN MEDAVOY TESTIMONIALS: "If only more people were not afraid to show they are human and not have a need for yes men/women to constantly stroke you...those who walk alongside you into the storm, at every twist and turn of the tornado -come out fearless and a storm maker themselves..." "Honestly, just reading through your posts and reading the story of your rise and fall to going back up again reinvigorated my fire to keep going. This is a tough industry to navigate and for an ethnic minority like me it will probably continue to be tough. So for someone of your caliber taking the time to write blogs that help actors and creatives and going to speak at acting school(I watched the one where you spoke at Howard Fine)makes me feel that there are movers and shaker in the industry that are for the actors." "What drew me to writing this email is your website/blog. Not only is it rare for a manager like yourself to take the time to create content like you do, but the why behind it is the most inspiring. It's not to promote anything, it's not to attain something, it's not for financial gain. It's simply to connect & inspire. That alone tells me exactly the type of human being you are." "What I assumed would be a typical Q&A turned into a motivational, inspirational and humbling experience. I can't thank you enough not only for your supportive responses to our questions, but also for opening up your vulnerability and allowing the audience to experience your insecurities with you.
