	Denny Cordell Biography - AOL Music
		Denny Cordell is the type of guy who, in his thirty year music career, was nearly every place at nearly every right time.
		Born in Buenos Aires but raised in England, at the tender age of 21 Cordell met and befriended Island Records founder Chris Blackwell just as his label was taking off and ended up running the Island subsidiary Aladdin.
		Among other notable releases in Shelter's history was Bob Marley's first American single, "Duppy Conqueror." As the '80s came Cordell left the music industry to foster another of his loves, horseracing, but the early '90s saw a renewed partnership with Island Records and Chris Blackwell.

		Denny’s friends were determined to have the race at Gowran, Denny’s local track, where incidentally he had trained the first winner of his short but highly successful time as a trainer.
		Denny’s friends are also the winners, they have a great excuse to see each other and reminisce about a dearly loved and sadly missed friend.

	The Tyrannosaurus Rex Years
		Denny was very interested in having an American producer on his staff and met with Tony to discuss a job in London.

		Denny Cordell was skeptical and not nearly as enthusiastic as Tony, but he agreed to sign Tyrannosaurus Rex on as Essex's "Token Underground Group".

	Denny Cordell
		Denny Cordell speaks about his contribution to A Whiter Shade of Pale, and about the state of the original demo, in a BBC Radio 4 programme from March 2002 that you can listen to here.
		Denny Cordell, producer, guru, early Procol supporter and occasionally underhanded ne'er-do-well, sits at the controls in a recording studio during the late 1960s.
		Though debate still rages over the production values of his work, especially on the first Procol LP, there is a warmth and proximity that somehow coalesces that first edgy masterpiece into an approximation of a 32-track daydream.

	Biography - Procol Harum (Bio 764) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Their first recording, produced by Denny Cordell, was of a piece of surreal Reid poetry called "A Whiter Shade Of Pale," which Brooker set to music loosely derived from Johann Sebastian Bach's "Air on a G String" from the Suite No. 3 in D Major.
		By the time this recording is ready for release, The Pinewoods have been rechristened Procol Harum, a name derived, as alternate stories tell it, either from Stevens' cat's birth certificate, Procol Harun, or a Latin "procul" for "far from these things" (hey, it was the mid-1960s, and either is possible).
		Cordell had also sent a copy of "A Whiter Shade of Pale" to Radio London, one of England's legendary offshore pirate radio stations (they competed with the staid BBC, which had the official broadcast monopoly, and were infinitely more beloved by the teenagers and most bands), which played the record.

	Velvet Elvis - Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers page 2
		The tracks Cordell picked to focus on were songs written and sung by Tom Petty As producer of the project Cordell wanted Mudcrutch to devote itself to Petty's work, not Ben's and not Danny's.
		Cordell decided the band needed to be submerged in the studio without distractions if they were ever going to get past their blocks.
		It is one example of Cordell's insight that even while he was pushing everyone to focus on Petty, he encouraged Petty to co-write with Campbell, in whom Cordell sensed untapped creativity Mike and Tom began collaborating on songs, cementing the creative partnership that would sustain them for the next twenty years.

		The album was universally lauded by the critics and featured songs such as"She Came in Through the Bathroom Window," "Delta Lady," "Darling Be Home Soon," and a rollicking rendition of "Hitchcock Railway." After two years of constant touring, Cocker was ready for a break and wanted to go home.

	Channel4.com - SlashMusic - To The Faithful Departed (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The songs on the Cranberries' third album touch on painful topics, dealing mainly with loss and the difficulties of growing toward true adulthood.
		Tragic inspirations include the deaths of singer-lyricist Dolores O'Riordan's grandfather ("Joe") and John Lennon ("I Shot John Lennon"); some import pressings also include "Cordell", an elegy for Denny Cordell, who signed the Cranberries to Island Records in 1991.
		Much of this material is bittersweet, but the songs are saved from dreary melancholy by the characteristic quirky Cranberries sound of O'Riordan's angelic voice, scattered with her trademark yelps and other vocal tics, juxtaposed against energetic, hard-edged guitar work by O'Riordan and Noel Hogan.

	Tony Visconti
		It was at this point that Visconti (somewhat involuntarily) took the job of house producer for his publisher the Richmond Organization.
		After a chance meeting by a water cooler in a publishing house with British producer Denny Cordell in 1968, Visconti found himself abruptly pulled into the big leagues when Cordell brought him to along assist in a session for jazz vocalist Georgie Fame.
		Within weeks of the session, Visconti had relocated to London (a move that would turn out to be permanent) and began contributing to the output of many of the most popular British musicians of the time.
