Jason Slater (jason-slater.com) was the bassist for Third Eye Blind and Snake River Conspiracy but he is probably best known as a record producer and in particular the producer for Queensryche’s output from 2005 to 2013.

Jason had a massive two sessions of talk with Richie about those years and this week we bring the first hour of that dialog.

And as always Focus On Metal…Everything Else is Insignificant.
