Born
in Boston, producer Joe Chiccarelli got his introduction in music
performing in local rockbands as a bass player. Chiccarelli moved
west in the late '70s where he scored an assistant engineer gig
at L.A.'s Cherokee Studios. As often happens within the studio world,
Chiccarelli caught his break when he happened to be at the right
place at the right time (or the wrong place at the wrong time, depending
on who you ask). As Cherokee's resident flack, Chiccarelli was assigned
to assist difficult clients such as Frank Zappa, who was known for
moodiness, being demanding, and keeping late hours. When Zappa's
main engineer got held up and couldn't make it to the studio, Zappa
upgraded Chiccarelli from assistant to engineer. The album, Sheik
Yerbouti,became a platinum album and was a giant step forward for
the young studio man, and from there Chiccarelli went on to engineer
several other Zappa discs, such as Joe's Garage and Baby Snakes,
as well as produce artists like Oingo Boingo, Ian Moore,The Verlaines
and American Music Club (All Music)
