In the latest IOR podcast I interviewed Harry Weinger, a veteran of the entertainment industry who is currently Vice President of A&R for Universal Music Enterprises, the catalog division of Universal Music Group. Harry has produced and/or managed hundreds of releases, winning two Grammy® Awards and many other honors for his work. We discussed his unique job in the music business and in particular two releases he was a part of, Marvin Gaye’s Funky Nation, The Detroit Instrumentals and James Brown Soul Pride, The Instrumentals 1960-1969.
