Norrie Paramor

Norrie Paramor (15 May 1914 - 9 September 1979) is best known as a record producer, but was also a composer, arranger, and orchestral conductor. Although the term "producer" was not in frequent circulation at the time Paramor started producing records (the usual term being "Artiste and Repertoire Manager" or "A&R Man"), he effectively commenced this role in 1952 when he became "Recording Director" for EMI's Columbia Records. Paramor produced hit singles for Cliff Richard
