According to Kalodner’s web site, the phrase “John Kalodner: John Kalodner” originated with Foreigner’s 1978 Double Vision album, when the album’s producer, Keith Olsen, was wondering just how to credit Kalodner’s involvement with the band and the album. In keeping with the double vision theme, Foreigner guitarist Mick Jones came up with idea of doubling Kalodner’s name. Kalodner’s work with other record labels, such as Epic with Boston, can be heard on their Greatest Hits on the original 1997 track listing featuring an edit by him of their song, “Higher Power”, as the final track of the album (The 2009 re-issue of the album does not feature this track).Kalodner worked with Billy Idol, Jack Blades, Roadstar, Steve Perry, Cher, and Suzie McNeil (of Rock Star: INXS) before retiring in 2006.
