    I'm surprised there's not more discussion here about this. The trailer looks great.

    Six months and no replies...I thought there would be some interest in this movie as many well known albums were recorded at Sound City.

    Marc Maron interviewed Grohl on his podcast about this movie today. Sounds like a fascinating project and right up the alley of most members here. The movie is released February 1, with the album and a few gigs to follow. The concerts should include many of the musicians featured in the film such as Paul McCartney, John Fogerty, Stevie Nicks et al, though not all will play at every show.

    Grohl also mentioned he gave his six-year-old daughter the new Beatles LP box and set up a turntable for her. He didn't say if she returned any of the albums or not.

    Strange, there actually were two replies, but they didn't show up when I posted that comment last night...
    I heard the podcast also, and I'm eager to learn more about that Neve 8028 console.
    It will be interesting to see all the musicians talk about their experiences recording at Sound City.

    When he said he didn't ground the turntable despite the loud hum, I thought to myself, "oh no, you gotta ground that thing!"

    numerous reviews are out and look pretty good . . . for anyone who "trusts" reviews.

    Hasn't Dave Grohl been underwriting in for the past couple year?

    Great documentary!
    ...love this scene here >>>

     
  18. Just watched it this evening, great documentary with lots of stuff I didn't know about Sound City. Steve would enjoy the part about the Neve console. Recommended viewing. :righton:

    Fantastic documentary. All young musicians need to watch this and take notes.

    And I am also surprised this documentary is not being discussed more here. Apparently, everyone is too busy with all the ridiculous threads about conjecture, whether 24/192 is better and so on...
    Time for another thread that cables don't make a difference or about Beyonce's halftime dance session.

    I asked a week or so ago and received no response----Is this thing in theaters now? I don't see it anywhere near me. Where and how is it being watched so far?
