This week we bring you part 2 of our 2-part discussion with recording engineer Scott James. During his tenure under Phil Ramone and Jim Boyer at A&R Recording in New York, Scott served as the assistant engineer on Billy Joel’s “An Innocent Man” album.

We talk with Scott about he and the team’s approach to recording and overdubs on “An Innocent Man,” the personalities inside the studio, and some of Scott’s work after leaving A&R.
