The complete series, hosted by Parsons and narrated by actor and musician Billy Bob Thornton, was recently released as a three-disc set; the individual programmes are currently available for download at www.artandscienceofsound.com. In the 'Microphones' section, several Audio-Technica microphones are prominently featured and identified by Parsons as he discusses and demonstrates various aspects of the recording process.
"Alan Parsons' body of work speaks for itself," stated Gary Boss, Audio-Technica marketing director. "He is a true master of his craft, having worked with some of the most talented and influential artists of the last 50 years and having shaped the course of popular music as a producer, engineer and musician. Alan also has had a long association with Audio-Technica microphones and was one of the first early adopters of our AT4033 microphone nearly 20 years ago."
