	IGN: Interview with Music Supervisor Glen Ballard (Part 1 of 2)
		Ballard has been working in the music industry for over 20 years and writing music for films nearly just as long.
		BALLARD: I think that — in the case of just shoe-horning music in — a lot of times the director is just driving in to the final dub and he hears something on the radio and it sounds good, so he wants it in his movie.
		BALLARD: Yeah, it’s much cheaper to do it that way, because to license the actual master recording is separate from the quote for the use of the song.

	EQ Magazine - GLEN BALLARD & THE MYSTERY OF THE MAGIC GUITAR
		As a producer and writer, Ballard has always taken chances (who else would get behind a trio of harmonizing chicks calling themselves Wilson Philips during the reign of flannelled growlers?), and if there’s an artifact that embodies that spirit, it’s probably the chopped-up ’79 Strat.
		Ballard tore out the first and third single coil pickups, and replaced them with humbuckers to beef up the classic Strat sound by toggling between the pickups with a five-position switch.
		The acoustic instruments were captured at Westlake Audio Studios (where Ballard once jammed on the synth of Michael Jackson’s Bad) with his cherished standbys — a vintage [AKG] D12, and a trio of Neumann mics — a 49, 47, and 67.

		Her elegant piano and splendid voice alone could grab your attention, but with her high cheekbones and curves, Prince is a beauty with plenty of sexy moves who can dazzle a crowd as well as show she can relate to her audience and chat to her fans as if they are old friends.
		She kept working until, indeed a few years later, she was playing at a party and was introduced to Grammy Award winning Glen Ballard as a result.
		Glen was an incredible mentor for me. Also, it was wonderful to be around Alanis, Dave Matthews, and Gwen Stefani.
