Record producer and songwriter Clive Langer recently discussed some of the high and not-so-high points of his long career, which include working with a who's who of rock royalty, but turning down the queen of pop. It was a big 'no' to Madonna, but Bowie and Jagger were "majestic".
Langer's discography reads like the history of rock and pop music, which is understandable given he started his illustrious studio career way back in the mid 1970s. He has worked with everyone from Bowie to Madness, Blur to Jagger, but in a recent interview with The Guardian, he revealed some of the missed opportunities of his studio career – some deliberate, some not so.
