New found love for Dave Grohl

[jsgksu]

Dave Grohl is very talented. I can't recall the name of the Foo Fighters disc, but he went back after the studio work and re-recorded some of the instruments himself because he's that much of a perfectionist.

I heard the whole first FF album was all him. He recorded guitar, bass, drums and vocals then found band mates. I heard that years ago, dont know if its true or not.

That's it, and it is true.

It's been said Prince can play nearly every instrument on any of his album's in fact he was asked to play each in the studio to prove to the record execs that he could do it.

[Easy E]

yeah i got that so far, watching the video i can never see the second chord, sounds like an Eb but he plays in first position, then the little breakdown part, cant get that either

[Speenis]

I have the everlong acoustic for stern, its great. As for a whole album, didnt know he had one. Can you hook it up check?

It wasnt an official release, i think it was just something some guy on the net put together, but its really cool.

i'll zip the whole thing and yousendit if a few people want it.

i want it

Thanks for putting those up check, that's awesome. I have a lot of respect for Grohl in terms of how he stacks up against other artists within the pop/rock genre. Singing/songwriting I like him a lot...it's his drumming that gets me. It's good, don't get me wrong, but I hate hearing people talk about what a great drummer he is. He's loud, and good for that kind of music, but his drumming is way overrated.

Regardless, thanks for the thread and mp3's check

here's a link to that kilborn video anyway..
