Steve actually prefers bands don’t credit him as the engineer in the liner notes of their records (he’s an engineer, not a producer; there’s a difference). Also, he doesn’t have a “resume”; he has a reputation for being one of the best recording engineers working in the industry. That reputation is why bands (like The Pixies, Jimmy Page / Robert Plant, Nirvana and 9000 bands you’ve never heard of) go to him to record their albums. It’s never been the other way around.

Oh, and Shellac are way better now than they were 20 years ago, so there’s never been talk of “the good ol’ days of Shellac” by Steve or anyone else. I enjoy seeing them more now than I did 20 years ago. You look like you weren’t even alive 20 years ago, so, like most people who leave comments on webpages, you have no fucking idea what you’re even talking about. Way to go.
