From "Letters To Mix", 2003 - [[Michael Braunstein]]: "The Frank I Remember": "I began working as Frank's recording engineer on January 3, 1975, when [[Kerry McNab]] (arguably the best engineer Frank ever had) began his slow withdrawal from the scene and subsequently from engineering entirely. Because of a contractual obligation to Kerry, [[Marty Perellis]] (Frank's then-manager) insisted on listing me as 'recordist' on the [[One Size Fits All]] LP, though I did much of the actual engineering. I went on to engineer all or part of six or so albums with Frank."
