      Jimmy Miller - produced the Mick Taylor era Stones albums.

      Steve Lillywhite - produced U2's first three albums himself, and has collaborated with the band several times since.

      Glyn Johns - worked with just about everyone in the late 60's/early 70's. Produced what should have been the final mix of the Beatles "Get Back/Let It Be". (Spector ruined it) Went from there to the Stones "Get Your Ya-Ya's Out", still considered their best official live album. Moved on to "Who's Next" after that. Hell of an achievement in such a short time. He went on to produce the early Eagles albums after that.

          Trevor Horn.

          He revolutionized 80`s production.

          Listen to Yes "90125" and it`s hard to believe that it is over 20 years old.

            Got say Goerge Martin. The work he did with the Beatles laid down the template for the rest of these guys to follow.

                      1. Jimi Hendrix (be it "only" for "Electric Ladyland"... man, what album on earth can compete?);

                      2. Brian Wilson;

                      3. Jimmy Miller (mostly for "Beggars Banquet" and "Let it Bleed", the outcome of ABKCO's DSD remasters made them more than stellar);

                      4. Glyn Johns (everybody wanted him as their sound engineer back in the golden years, before he set to production too);

                      5. Jimmy Page.

                      That's three Jim(m)ies... Funny coincidence.

                      Well, all of my top 5 are from the old days, but well, this was when most of it was invented IMO.
