Title: Nirvana Producer Butch Vig on "Helter Skelter"
Post by: Musicfan67 on December 24, 2010, 02:59:21 PM

This was mentioned on another thread in another music forum that is a bit Beatles centrc on both sides. So I looked it up and there it was.


"When in January of 1992 that album reached Number One on the charts, it changed music history. Many credited Vig. He shrugs it off. "Nevermind was just starting to take off," Vig told Musician. "I was talking about this whole grunge thing with a friend … when ’Helter Skelter’ [by seminal pop band the Beatles] came on the juke box. I said: ’Here’s the first grunge song, listen to it!’… So it wasn’t really anything new. I didn’t invent grunge. And Seattle didn’t either."
