RIP Roger Nichols

Boswell 1 June 2011

He was inventive both in the studio and in his commercial ventures, and was single-handedly responsible for the excellence of the Steely Dan recordings. The Wendel Sampling Computer was one of his creations from 1978 aimed at improving the regularity of drumming.
