'Recording' chronicles music, tech

LRSmedia has started production on "Recording: The History of Recorded Music," an eight-part documentary series that will be narrated by Phil Ramone. The series will be a chronological exploration of how technology and music have interacted to create sound recordings. "Artists from every genre have agreed to appear in the series, from singer-songwriters like Billy Joel and Paul Simon to rockers like Peter Frampton and music legends like Les Paul, Dave Brubeck, Smokey Robinson and B.B. King," executive producer Larry Rosen said. (Hollywood Reporter)
