Recording Nirvana's song Polly (Butch Vig breaks it down...)

http://www.MixMyMusic.net - Curious how they did it? This is a clip of Butch Vig dissecting Nirvana's song "Polly" from their album Nevermind. Butch Vig produced the record. Again, he solos out single sounds embedded in the song. It can be quite haunting to hear Kurt's voice by itself. Great song. Tip of the hat to "Classic Albums".

kurt cobain never died from my view. we still feel him through his music.

@emanuelpoliveira He's referring to the sonics. One mic; lots of boomy/boxy mid-range that would ordinarily be EQ'ed out. As well, the guitar itself was a piece of shit. Great riff -- agreed! :)

Proud to listen to Nirvana at 00:00 1/1/12 :D

@emanuelpoliveira The guitar, not the playing.

Cheap ? That riff is amazing
-
These videos are very cool, thanks to you or whoever originally captured this, thanks to Butch, too. :D
-
it's amazing how respectful he is with kurt's recorded voice without even noticing it..that pretty much sums it all.
