One of the most fascinating men that worked in music production/recording. If you aren't familiar with him and his various idiosyncrasies, I highly recommend giving this a watch/listen:

In my personal list of top 10 albums of all time, Albini recorded six of them. I say "recorded" instead of "produced" because this is more akin to his style: set up microphones and record the band as they sound.

Of course he did this because he felt after getting things setup and sounding as desired (which he put a lot of work and thought into) it was the artists that were responsible for their art. He would offer his thoughts if asked though.
