Bowie, Rollers and Air SupplyFrom August to December 1974 David Bowie recorded his new Philly soul-inspired album at Philadelphia's Sigma Sound and New York's Record Plant. Producer Tony Visconti returned to London to mix the recordings, but Bowie took an opportunity to collaborate with John Lennon.[3] Bowie called Maslin and asked the young engineer to produce. In January 1975 at Electric Lady studios Maslin oversaw the recording of "Fame" with Lennon on guest vocals, as well as a cover of Lennon's own song "Across the Universe". These sessions completed the hit album Young Americans. This album reached UK No. 2, US No. 9, and the single "Fame" was US No. 1. Bowie asked Maslin to produce his next album, Station to Station, in Los Angeles in 1975.[4] The album was a critical and commercial success, charting at US No. 3 and UK No. 5, and included the singles “Golden Years” and “TVC15”. Maslin rejoined the Hit Factory, and was next contacted by the renowned Clive Davis to produce two chart topper albums for the Bay City Rollers (including the 1977 hit single "You Made Me Believe in Magic" ), "Don't Cry Out Loud" a signature hit for Melissa Manchester in 1978, and an album for Eric Carmen in 1980. Davis then asked Maslin to take over production of the first Air Supply album for Arista Records, which achieved multi-platinum sales. He was called back to produce the following two multi-platinum albums for Air Supply. Highlighted by five Top Five singles in a row "Even The Nights Are Better", "Every Woman In The World", "Here I Am", "Sweet Dreams", and "The One That You Love", making Air Supply the most successful pop group of all time.{{citation needed|date=July 2018}} Air Supply's greatest hits compilation album has sold beyond the four times platinum mark. Los AngelesIn 1983 Maslin opened his own studio, Image Recording Studios in Hollywood. Maslin reduced his workload as a producer and engineer and focussed on studio management and consulting.

Maslin has also served as a consultant for studio builders, equipment manufacturers, engineers, producers, A&R personnel and music supervisors.{{citation needed|date=July 2018}} In 2005, Image Recording closed.
