“It was the Wild West of music,” declares actor Seth Eliser, who plays Neil Sedaka and a Righteous Brother in MSMT’s last main stage show of the 2024 season, BEAUTIFUL: THE Carole King MUSICAL. “There were producers like Phil Spector at Gold Star Records, who created the wall of sound by literally running wires into a bathroom and letting the tape run so it would echo, or Lou Adler at Columbia with a much more elegant sound, or Sam Phillips at Sun Records with a little more raunchy sound. These [and other] great producers could elevate a sound to another thrilling place. There was always a race to find that new sound; there was teamwork but also competition.”
