The incredibly raw track has a strong Nirvana vibe to it, while
adding a splash of Sir Paul’s personality and heavier Beatles songs such
as ‘Helter Skelter.’ The unlikely collaboration was recorded for Dave
Grohl’s highly anticipated ‘Sound City’ documentary, which is set for a
February 2013 premiere at the Sundance Film Festival. The flick will
become available simultaneously through video-on-demand services as the
Sundance projector starts to roll.
At first, Macca simply thought he was jamming with Grohl and some
random musicians, unknowingly finding himself in the middle of a
partial Nirvana reunion. “I didn’t really know who they were,” begins
McCartney. “They are saying how good it is to be back together. I said,
‘Whoa? You guys haven’t played together for all that time?’ And somebody
whispered to me, ‘That’s Nirvana. You’re Kurt.’ I couldn’t believe it.”
Expectations were high when the public learned that an original song
was composed by the group, but when McCartney, Grohl, Novoselic and
Smear took the stage at ’12-12-12,’ the worldwide audience knew that
they were witnessing something remarkable.
The documentary’s soundtrack, ‘Sound City – Real to Reel,’ will see a
March 12 release, but ‘Cut Me Some Slack’ is already available to
purchase via iTunes. Go buy it!
