The Foo Fighters' debut album turns 25 today. Take a look back at the instant rock classic that went on to sell more than 1.5 million copies
called his longtime friend, musician and producer Barrett Jones: Grohl wanted studio time. What transpired was a five-day session manned by Grohl and Jones at Seattle’s Robert Lang Studios which yielded, note for note — with only final mixes finished later —’ self-titled, punk- and grunge-fueled, keenly melodic debut album. Released July 4, 1995, it was an instant classic and went on to sell more than 1.5 million copies, according to the RIAA.
Several bands later, in 1990, Grohl joined Nirvana and suggested Jones move to Seattle and also invited him to the Los Angeles studio as Nirvana recorded their game-changing album, “Nevermind.” Randomly, Greg Dulli of The Afghan Whigs, a mutual friend, dropped by and is credited with playing guitar on the song “X-Static.” Although Jones reveals: “Greg barely did anything. It was probably just one little guitar line.”
“It was intense, but not in a stressful way,” Jones says. “It was purely this feeling of getting it out. This was my second time ever in a 24-track studio. We had done everything on 8-track before. I was like a kid in a candy store and Dave was on top of his game.”
