| As a producer, his most famous productions are albums by Seal, Tina Turner, Frankie goes to Hollywood and Grace Jones.
His major contribution to pop music is his bombastic production and the use of samplers (particularly the Fairlight CMI), sometimes (arguably) to the point of excess (such as cutting and pasting Welcome to the pleasuredome on Frankie's first album until it reached the 13-minute mark). |
