Why Jimmy Page?

Never saw him as a top producer.




I heard he did alright with this unknown band called Led Zeppelin...



On your list were producers that recorded some landmark albums. Jimmy wouldn't be on my list.
Never saw him as a great producer. His LZ remixes sound great, but in the past I can't remember what great albums he produced.

Really?

I? II? III? IV? Physical Graffiti?

I'd want him for Physical Graffiti alone...

Re: Martin Birch?


As a producer or as a musician / songwriter?

He is absolutely not in the league of Bob Ezrin, George Martin, Roy Thomas Baker and Martin Birch. Those guys not only produced the albums, they also made the bands perform better than before.

Outside LZ he hasn't achieved much recognition as a producer. In fact if you consider the years, he didn't do much after LZ.
For instance The Firm. A great line-up (Page, Rogers, Franklin, Slade) but two disappointing albums. They don't sound that great and as a producer he didn't get the best out of it.
They didn't live up to the expectations.

Everybody has his own opinion.
