Johnny Rock & Friends: For The Record

In 2015 I released a vinyl LP titled Johnny Rock & Friends: For The Record. It brought together several amazing, unsigned musicians to record a once-in-a-lifetime album. Calling on writers, musicians, and family, I formed small ensembles to write and record. More than a compilation of songs, For The Record was produced as two cohesive sides of original music, recorded and mixed on tape; analog all the way to the cutting head. The album packaging also features hand drawn artwork to minimize the 1’s and 0’s between the artists and the audience.

I gave my friends the rare opportunity to make an album with the quality and vibe of the records that first inspired us. Today there is a very small number of craftsmen with the skill and equipment to cut a vinyl record without digital processing. This was the project of a lifetime, and there are still copies available for purchase below. For The Record is also available on all streaming platforms, and our Youtube channel is full of music videos, artist spotlights, the making of each song, and an up-close look at the all-analog mixing and mastering processes.
