Here's a little video about the making of Nirvana's album Nevermind.  There's a couple of cool things about it.  First of all, they discuss choosing Butch Vig to be their producer.  Butch Vig is also producing the new Foo Fighters album which I mentioned in my last post.  According to fooarchive.com they have started a few weeks of rehearsing in preperation for recording with Butch in September.  So in the video you get to see this guy in action and hear what he has to say about Nevermind.  The second really cool thing is that at the very end of the video, Butch shows the various tracks for In Bloom and you get to hear Dave's harmonies right along with Kurt Cobain's vocals.  Cool to hear Dave's pre-Foo vocals and what his voice sounded like then.  Apparently he used to be really self-conscious about his singing ability, so it was interesting for me to hear something from early on and see  what his voice sounded like.  Maybe he hadn't developed his trademark scream yet.  Maybe he was a little off-key in spots.  Maybe his voice was high and whiny.  Nope.  None of those things.  Turns out his voice sounded great all along.


I hate Dave Grohl.
