A Day At The Races was the fist album we actually produced. We kept Mike Stone, who had been assisting Roy, because we needed an engineer. At that time Roy got The Cars and we had come a long way together. I think between us and him we evolved that style of production which has now gone out into the world and got to other people. Mike Stone was involved form the beginning too, the harmonies, doing the guitars that way, getting ambience on the drums and making them sound bigger.
