Recommended Rick Rubin profile in New York Times

 

Thanks to Mark Hall for a link to a highly recommended profile of music biz player Rick Rubin in Sunday’s New York Times.

The Music Man, by Lynn Hirschberg, is a long revelatory feature article, based around interviews with the legendary founder of Def Jam and agenda-setting producer (Beastie Boys>Johnny Cash), now co-head of Columbia Records, parachuted in by Sony to save the company from becoming irrelevant in the new music economy.

Rubin’s first two signings have been a rock band, Gossip, and an English operatic tenor, Paul Potts.
