The Kama Sutra/Buddah Records Story

Charting the history of any record label—much less two or three—is a precarious occupation at best. A hit record makes ordinary people heroes while a stiff causes the arrow of blame to spin madly, looking for a suitable target. Some success in the music business comes from sheer luck; some is the result of hard, diligent work, and some comes from what can only be described as a “genius” for the medium.

I think most people in the music business would agree that Wally Heider was a major influence in the history of recording on the west coast, and helped launch hundreds of careers in the music business, including my own.

This is a place where we can share our experiences with Wally, his friends and associates at Wally Heider Recording, the equipment, the remotes and anyone else who had contact with the man or his studios, whether as an employee or a client.

Due to an incredible number of bots, spammers and trollers (mostly from Russia*) that want to do nothing but attempt to post spam and make things difficult for me, I can't automatically authorize users right away any more, but I'm notified of new registrations immediately and can add legitimate posters. Once again, if you have a story or wish to leave a comment to a story, please register and post your story, but don't bother to register if you're not going to contribute . All articles are publicly viewable. Also photos of Wally are desperately needed. Anyone?
