Is anyone else familiar with producer Kevin Churko? I'm not too much a big fan of his, actually not at all. His history pretty pathetic in my opinion and doesn't have any big or major albums to his name. He's produced a variety of albums from country to rock, but that doesn't necessarily make him an expert on specific genres of music such as rock or metal.
I'm kind of disappointed that Ozzy is going back to him to make the next album. I've heard that Churko is calm, easy to work with and through ideas out so maybe that's why Ozzy's going back, but is that really worth sacrificing the quality of the album?
Honestly, I wasn't too happy with the way Black Rain turned out. I think Ozzy has the potential to make another great album before he's done. After all, he's even got Guitar God Zakk Wylde by his side to do it, but I doubt it will happen with new age producer Churko.
Ozzy get someone who knows what he's doing!!
