Michael Wagener: The Final Word Part 1 - Ep460

This week we present part 1 of a special 2 part interview with legendary producer Michael Wagener. Upon his retirement from the music industry in 2021, Michael has graciously granted Decibel Geek his final podcast interview. When you hear the phrase 'the soundtrack of our lives,' no one can lay more claim to it than producer Michael Wagener. His work with such rock greats as Dokken, Ozzy Osbourne, Metallica, Alice Cooper, and tons more is a testament to his talent, professionalism, personality, and direction. His continued work with upcoming artists such as Jax Hollow, Black Smoke Trigger, and more show that he never lost his desire to showcase new talent to the world. The sales of his works top over 90 million albums. He's more than earned this retirement. As you'll hear in this 2 part interview, Michael shares numerous stories and memories from his life and career. From the early influence of the Beatles to his work with Don Dokken that brought him to America to producing classics for legendary bands and his hopes and goals for the future; this is an all-encompassing chat that we're thrilled to bring you. *Please Note* - There is some static interference during the first 5-10 minutes of the interview portion of Part 1 but the conversation is still listenable and clears up soon after. We apologize for this technical difficulty and hope you enjoy this long form chat. We hope you enjoy Michael Wagener: The Final Word Part1 and SHARE with a friend!
