Although Roy Thomas Baker only gets credited for three tracks on the back of the album (Starz, Bring the Light, and Pomp and Circumstances) interviews, particularly the DVD that came with the Best Buy re-release, suggest that Baker had a general influence over the sound of Zeitgeist and how the album sounded.
We know from interviews that Baker helped out on Tarantula (Inside Smashing Pumpkins: Zeitgeist radio broadcast) and For God & Country (Zeitgeist Track by Track); Billy mentioned that it was Baker's idea to make the bass so prominent in the latter track.
