I feel like Rick has really tapped into something with these long form interviews. Where else can you hear directly from LEGENDS like Butch Vig or Billy Corgan or Sting or Maynard James Keenan or Derek Trucks and hear their stories. Rick asks the questions we would ask and has a comfortable nature that seems to bring out the best stories. I have always enjoyed the Rick Beato content, but these interviews are special. Extremely unique and fascinating content that you cannot get anywhere else. Keep it up Rick!

@@kcdw0012 I went to school for sound engineering, but what you need to do more than anything is just start getting your hands dirty. Do KZread videos, volunteer at churches to run their sound (most provide free training), if there are recording studios around you, become an intern and work for free and get really good/quality training, start recording and mixing friends for free on your DAW, but most importantly... It's about who you know. 110%! You have to get involved in the business on a personal level, even if you were the best producer in the world, nobody's going to know it if you don't have people sending clients to you. It's about making friends and building your chops at the same time. Be easy to work with and don't have an attitude, even when circumstances might dictate otherwise. When it boils down to it, people want to work with cool people.😎 Lastly, be willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done, even if you don't know how to do something, learn it while in-process, but in order to be a producer, you need to learn all aspects of recording/mixing... At least in my opinion. With that said, there's been a bit of a mix-up in the language that we use nowadays for "producers". Producers used to be people that could get an album put together from start to finish, and are able to provide good creative input in order to make the best recording possible, while dealing the artists on a personal level. Nowadays, the term producer has been diminished to someone that just sits around making beats and providing artists with material that they can record to. Regardless of how you're using the word, you'll need to figure out what specifically you need to learn in order to accomplish your goal. Butch vig, as seen in this interview, is a tracking and mixing engineer first.... The producer stuff came later. He earned every bit of his success.

One of the coolest things in this interview is where they talk about lining up the next Pumpkins record in the wake of the world changing Nevermind, and how much pressure Butch was under to deliver something equally successful. Normally, there would have been a lot of doubt about anyone being able to pull the same trick again, but in this case the result was an album that was as big, powerful, and successful as it was unique and defining in its own right. Siamese Dream might not have represented the same musical revolution that Nevermind did, but it came as close as anything ever could and was without a doubt one of the most iconic albums of the 90’s.

Jesus holy mary hell, I sat through all of that and it was amazing. Ricks interviews reveal that all of his guests and probably everyone involved in making amazing records, are just normal, humble music nerds. Like the rest of us.

I can listen to Butch talk all day about his adventures! I was 26 and working multiple large oil & gas projects around The mid to upper northwest when the whole grunge thing came in. I really got hooked into the whole new sound of the day - it was just so heavy and dry, and realistic after the glam days. Then, I heard this song in ‘95, as I was coming off Diamond head into Honolulu in my new Jeep. Turns out it was Vow by Garbage. That began my love affair with their sound. It’s just crazy how much Butch has done for music, and so much of it I loved and still listen to now. Rock on, Butch!

Every time I think Rick Beato can’t get any better, something like this comes along. Truly amazing to see these long form interviews

This was better than any interview I've ever heard between two producers of music can't wait for part 2 thank you Rick for all your efforts there is nobody out there like you

I love dearly to hear how he got started! Great memory and plenty of humour. Another legend who had music in his life from an early age. Thank you Rick for doing this. Keep it up😀

Seeing Butch air drum to Jimmy and Dave's iconic drum hooks is absolutely priceless.

Wow, I'm glad Rick is getting the recognition he deserves with these Superstar interviews!

It’s amazing how many of these guys and gals are fans

There's a video out about the making of Nevermind and when Butch talked about how he recorded Something In The Way, that's when I knew he was one of the Masters. That is one of the most haunting, mellow, laidback tracks of all time. Very Pink Floyd-ish. An amazing producer.

Personally speaking, this is the most enjoyable interview you've ever done Rick. Gish, Nevermind, and Siamese Dream are 3 of my most listened to albums ever (I'm just about 40). I've always thought Garbage is a pretty great band. To get this insider view, and to see just how deliberate and down-to-earth Butch freakin' Vig is, has me smiling from ear to ear. I was just captivated by this interview from start to finish. Thank you both.

I enjoyed every single minute of this interview. What a gem!

This is a masterclass. Thank you Rick for your immeasurable contribution to music and its history!

I remember hearing cherub rock for the first time driving in my car and couldn't believe the sonic quality of it. I love Garbage and of course the first time hearing Teen Spirit in my brother's car is something I'll never forget. Butch is a true talent.

Rick Beato's lessons videos and interviews should definitely be in the Library of Congress! 🙏💎

Rick Beato I am so proud we call the same city home. I work in downtown ATL and have been a musician and songwriter damn near my whole life. 38 this year. These interviews have been so crucial in the way of insight into the minds and spirits of some of my absolute favorite Musicians and bands. I've been a subscriber for a long time. Id kill to see you at the Fox. Keep up the good work!

Wether Rick knows it or not he has left his mark in music and on future generations with his content and this interviews. Thank you, Rick.

What makes Rick great is that people like me, who know hardly anything about music production or engineering, can be completely engrossed in listening to the recording processes. Rick, you're a complete legend. These albums I've listened to thousands of times. Hearing about them being made is completely amazing.

Right! Now idea what you're talking about, but it's fascinating.

.... This is excellent. One of the best interviews on recording/producing/engineering I've ever seen. Butch Vig is one of those guys who just knows the recording process in totality & can explain it in words anyone can understand. And he has great ears. One of the greats in the business for sure.

Hands down one of my favorite producers of all time. His records sound amazing.

I like what Butch Vig said at the end when he admitted that he was a pop geek and loved listening to the Carpenters. In my opinion, to really love music, one would have to be open to all kinds.

Yeah... and Rick Beato did a Carpenters video 5 months ago that I just watched this past weekend! Then I read tonight on Wikipedia where Butch described "You Look So Fine" citing its "Carpenters doing Sonic Youth quality".

No matter how high the level of fame or the legendary status of the guests, Rick simply brings the musicians out of them and somehow the 'celebrity' side resides. I think that is the greatest achievement of this channel.

He sat down and said "Rick I am a big fan of your channel". How cool was that.

Absolutely fantastic and endlessly interesting. Can't wait for part two.

This is great! Butch really opened up and you can tell he just loves his job. I learned so much from watching this. Excellent video!

Through the history of man, pre current media outlets, one of the main/most important person in the tribe was the story teller. This was how the history and sustaining of the tribes traditions survived. Rick is our guy! As always, JD

I wish we could have had more of a deep dive into Siamese Dream. I feel like that album is the pinnacle of creativity for the both of them

This was wonderful, Rick. Thank you for doing this, and thank you Butch for all the awesome insight! Definitely need a part 2!!

Thank you both. Loved this so very much. Can’t wait for part 2 (please)

I loved loved loved every second of this interview. What a legend Butch is, and thank you Rick for bringing us an amazing history lesson. Being 20 in 1990 I was at the right age to appreciate the massive change this music brought about after suffering years of the Stock, Aitken and Waterman sound, and the hair bands that had become pretty stale. Butch was so pivotal to that change. To hear him tell his story is a real privilege.

It's literally no exaggeration to say that the records this man produced changed my life. Amazing interview Rick, please do a part 2 as Butch suggested!

I've always really liked butch. He crafted a lot of the sound I grew up listening to. and played a big part in it. Dude really loved what he did. and its awesome.

Other great one, Rick! Fascinating to hear about so many of Butch's great projects. A true icon and such a down to earth guy. Makes you realize why so many people want to work with him.

I have to say, watching Butch air drum to Jimmy Chamberlain, like I have a million and a half times, made my week. Great interview. Thank you, Rick and Butch!

Let's not wait too long to get Butch back. This was one of the best interviews I have seen in a long time, anywhere.

Can’t wait for par 2! I love these interviews.

thank you so much for these interviews Rick, it means so much to us. you can see why bands love Butch, he's so intelligent, so articulate, so sharp, so laid back.....must be the perfect producer!

I love this man’s sound. Butch Vig is a super powered producer!

I didn't realise that Butch's studio was still basically held together with duct tape & hand-me-downs, right up to Nevermind. Assumed he was already this industry titan with state-of-the-art equipment etc. Great stories & insights - what a legend (with a legend of an interviewer).

That's the coolest part of the story to me. Butch was a humble and down to earth dude with a diy attitude and a broke mentality, choosing cheap gear.... To find out he was the Rick Rubin of these bands.

What a gift. Butch's work *and* Rick's interview. Thank you.

Great interview - really cool hearing Butch talk about the recording process of such historical albums!

I loved this. Coming from Madison, we are so proud of Butch and how he put the city on the rock n roll map. Love how he made himself into a great producer.

Every interview with Butch Vig is pure GOLD!

Rick has consistently blown me away with his interviews and song breakdowns. As a former audio engineer and musician I eat this stuff up like Tupelo Honey. It is by far the best thing on KZread!

This was fabulous Rick. Thank you very much.

Butch Vig is such a humble legend and Rick’s natural curiosity and interview style is so on point. I’m in heaven listening to these two guys geek out on 90’s rock nostalgia.

I’ve been waiting for this interview for a while! Awesome to finally have Butch along.

Thank you very much for interviewing Butch Vig. This conversation was incredible 👍

I was glad you guys talked about Garbage. My youngest daughter was probably in middle school and turned me on to them so that took me back. My oldest turned me on to the Pumpkins; we caught a Machina concert at George Mason in Northern Virginia. And I think I turned the kids on to Nirvana. If it had been vinyl I would have worn Nevermind smooth. Hearing Butch’s Pumpkins & Nirvana stories was AMAZING! Thank you, Mister Beato!

First this was fantastic. Watching Butch listen to the end of teen spirit I swear I could see a sudden sadness in his face as he remembered the magic he helped create with the band and not having Kurt here to enjoy it as well. Butch seems like a genuinely good guy.

It's got to be hard knowing that he played an instrumental part in giving a fellow artist the recognition he thought he wanted at the time, only to discover it was too much for the guy to handle once it happened.

First I thought 'one hour and 45 minutes! when will I have time?' But once I started listening, I couldn't stop. Not a single dull moment. I'm glad they talked about the power of the space in Dave Grohl's drum beat and Shirley Manson's quiet vocal. That contrasting quiet accentuates the power.

I'm so glad I finally was able to sit down and watch this entire thing. I love everything about it, definitely looking forward to part 2!!
