Veteran A&R executive, producer, and songwriter Ron Fair joins Dave in studio in the 28th episode of Pensado's Place. Ron Fair has worked with and mentored artists such as Christina Aguilera, Keyshia Cole, Travis Garland, Lady Gaga, U2, Vanessa Carlton, Ashlee Simpson, and The Black Eyed Peas. Ron dishes his creative insight into songwriting and how it fits into his A&R work, as well as talks to Dave about the skill sets required in working with the top artists in the world.
Ron takes viewer questions in our Corner Office segment, and finally, for this week's Batter's Box, engineer Craig Burbidge (Barry White, Steve Perry, Natalie Cole, Take 6, Teddy Pendergrass, Paul Jackson Jr., Vanessa Williams, Brian McKnight) joins Dave to answer his rapid-fire gear questions in this week's Vintage King Batter's Box!
