  • Richard Podolor was the first record producer to achieve a platinum album. Richard Podolor, who is also known as Richie Podolor or Richard Allen, produced hits including "Joy to the World" by Three Dog Night and "Born to Be Wild" by Steppenwolf. His early hits were as guitarist and co-writer on the drummer Sandy Nelson's records. He co-composed Teen Beat (1959) but was not credited; this was rectified for later hits, including the formidable Let There Be Drums (1961). Later he was engineer on records by The Electric Prunes. Together with his brother, Don Podolor, and mother, Ethel Podolor, the family started the American Entertainment and American Recording Company.
  • Richie Allen (eigentlich Richard Podolor) war ein US-amerikanischer Surf-Sound-Musiker der 1960er Jahre. Allen war als Gitarrist vor allem ein umtriebiger Session-Musiker der südkalifornischen Surfmusic-Szene, der insbesondere für Produzent Gary Usher auf vielen Aufnahmen mitwirkte, u.a. bei Sandy Nelsons Teen Beat. Er veröffentlichte einige Aufnahmen unter dem eigenen Namen (mit seiner „Begleitband“ The Pacific Surfers), kehrte jedoch nach nur mäßigem Erfolg zu Sessions zurück. Gegen Ende des Jahrzehnts konzentrierte sich Allen, nun unter seinem Geburtsnamen Podolor, auf das Produzieren, so mit Iron Butterfly, Steppenwolf und Three Dog Night.
