The verdict

Legendary music producer behind Pink Floyd's The Wall, Alice Cooper's shock rock era, and Kiss's defining albums — all while being born and raised in Toronto. Shaped the sound of rock music from a home base in Canada, proving you don't need to move to LA to become one of the most influential producers in history.
