The Official MySpace Site of Tony Visconti, Record Producer, Musician, Recording Engineer and sometime artist.
Tony Visconti, The Autobiography (Bowie, Bolan and the Brooklyn Boy) is available through www.amazon.com (USA) and www.amazon.com.uk (UK) - and possibly in a store near you.
I produced LOTs of records by T. Rex, David Bowie, Thin Lizzy, Morrissey and Kristeen Young. But there are many, many more.
In the past year I have been producing Anti-Flag, Angélique Kidjo, Raphaël and Kristeen Young (now called KRISTEENYOUNG). This wide range of genres is typical of my career which included such wide ranging styles from Sparks (Pop, and then some), Gentle Giant (Art Rock), Ralph McTell (Folk) to Elaine Paige (Music Theatre).

Sometime last year I'm watching an awards show when suddenly I hear that Tony Visconti is nominated for an award. I turn to my wife and say, "That's the guy who, with David Bowie, made my favorite album of all time (Low)". Sure enough, there's Tony accepting the grammy for Djin Djin. "This is insane", I thought. "Am I dreaming? 30 years late, but okay...okay. This is good..."
Marc awakened me to the world of music a long time ago and I know you were responsible for much in the background he probably did'nt appreciate with all that Stardom goin' to his head.. hehe... Then, Bowie blew my mind, and you were there too, so thanx 4 coming to my site and Welcome to my Universe Toni. Glad U came 2 Swim in my Ocean. I gave up for a while, but after 911 I thought, what the Hell, we're only here for a short time, so I started up again and this is some of my scrubbed together bits... (I've got Tons)!! Check my Vids on youtube. com/okusdolphin - Okus the Strange Bluey-Pinky part of the flame in the Olympic Torch Shooting around the Unfolding Carpet at the Top of the Olympic Stadium in Beijing.. hehe... what...?!
The great song on my profile is 'Stop Thinking'.. the album I must get is 'Music for Strippers, Hookers and the Odd Onlooker' .. by the artiste genius KristeenYoung.
Reading your book now (with the pretty rainbow UK cover). Laughed out loud about your Catskills experience being just like Dirty Dancing but without the dancing. Ah, well, anyway, lovely insight into the recording process, et al. And classic pic of you and tamourine Joel. x Rebecca Roulette/ New York Times
Thanls for adding me Tony. I am SO loving your book..I am reading it slowly as I don't want to finish it, I am enjoying it too much and can't stand the thought of being on the last page! You will have to do another one.. Best wishes, Paul
Heartfelt thanks for the add. You represent so much of some favorite influences. Your work with Roy Harper, T Rex, Bowie, Gentle Giant and Strawbs is the best. Wishing You Continued Successes WS
