Butch Vig on recording Nirvana’s “In Bloom”
As you know I’m a sucker for insider studio stuff. Here’s a cool (and short!) video with Butch Vig talking about recording Nirvana’s “In Bloom.” I think it’s interesting how much Kurt basically deplored slick studio production tricks. Whereas others, um, depend on them whenever possible. For the kids out there unfamiliar with Nirvana – the voice of God channeled through some idiot kid in a flannel, w/ a cool Fender jaguar, flashed briefly for a few years on the strength of a Pixies ripoff and poof he was gone, leaving a big sad lifelong hole in the hearts of admirers. His drummer grew up and became Dave Grohl.
