Ken Scott started at the top—and stayed there for over a decade. Having got himself into EMI’s studio training program, his first session as an engineer was on The Beatles’ Hard Day’s Night album.

In his 2013 Red Bull Music Academy lecture, Scott discusses his time at Abbey Road, working with legends like Bowie and Lou Reed, living next door to Frank Zappa, and more.

But it’s as co-producer on Bowie’s first golden streak that he’s perhaps best known, stepping into the seat for the classic Hunky Dory, and remaining there through Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane, and Pin Ups, records that made Bowie a megastar but were also as musically diverse as The Beatles in their prime.

In 1974, he produced Crime Of The Century, the breakthrough album for Supertramp, developing a reputation for marrying complex orchestrations to huge, successful hits. Less commercial, but hugely successful in its own right, was his work in jazz-rock, where he toughened up the sounds of pioneers like Mahavishnu Orchestra, Billy Cobham, and Stanley Clarke.
