I too, am endlessly watching stuff of his, just in shock. Being a Chicago musician my whole life, having friends that worked at electrical, he was especially revered in my circles... Can't believe I'll never get to work with him
God, I already miss Steve’s presence on this planet. Sooo many pieces of musical work are part of my psyche have been touched by him, whether they were his bands or ones he recorded. Thanks for the noise Steve. Let’s keep making sounds that would make him proud!
Recorded with Steve around 2000-2001. He was a bargain and the time spent hanging out with him turned out to be better than the recording. One of the greatest experiences I’ve ever had.
Such a smart dude. So thoughtful and intentional in everything he did. And gracious too. He lent his skills to all sorts of bands and made his studio accessible for people who weren't "rock stars" and didn't have major label money to spend. R.I.P. Steve Albini. A true one off, if there ever was one.
He produced not only most of my true favorites, but albums that I/am OBSESSED over/with to this day. Sad that he won’t have a hand in any more.. R.I.P.
Holy shit i love Marc but sometimes he needs to bite his tongue and let his guests speak. He can’t go more than 5 seconds without interjecting and interrupting. Steve Albini is the type that you don’t need to really guide along much, he will cover all bases to completely color a topic or story.
I’ve always been interested to know how Steve has had such a successful career basically consistently building his own momentum and being at the center of hugely influential projects. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that it’s a pretty straightforward sequence of events. He self-taught out of necessity, and created music and recorded albums the love of the game until he’d made a name for himself.
Steve mentions the band Teeth as one of the two biggest records that he made. Here is a link to a short video about the recording of that album. ruclips.net/video/dvrJxZ5iBcc/видео.htmlsi=glgrdH25bTwjE6v9
When I hear distant gunshots I always hope they'e pointed at somebody specific. Rather that than a stray bullet, sometimes somebody just has to take one for the team.
I’m new to these podcasts. I’ve listened to interviews with Kim Deal and now Steve Albini. Man, I wish Marc would just shut up and let his guests speak. He constantly interrupts and interjects. It’s annoying.
interview starts @ 16:53... jesus fucking christ
Thank you… 😅
maron is insufferable jesus

@@mj.l Your own insufferable Jesus.

RIP Steve. 🥺I'm listening to this classic again. Thanks Marc♥️

Cool. What was your group called?
I've recorded with Steve in 93 and it sucked - did become multimillionair, but it suuuucked

I’ve listened to this so many times; never tire of hearing Albini ❤❤❤❤❤
Great Interview! Love the honesty and Marc with questions! Albini will be missed! He engineered / recorded and archived a lot of bands!
He produced not only most of my true favorites, but albums that I/am OBSESSED over/with to this day. Sad that he won’t have a hand in any more.. R.I.P.
i cant believe hes gone
Marc: “I guess what I’m saying is I’m old, lol”
Steve: “You can’t play that shit with me!”
16:53
Thanks!
steve albini interviews are always so interesting

also seems that mark didn't really know that albini was a musician in his own right before the interview
The leaf blower bit was hilarious.
HEY DENNIS
Goddamn. I have so much respect for this dude. Not a day goes by where I listen to something he produced. What a loss.

Steve is endlessly fascinating
Keep the hi-hat a little more peppery..
There's producers, then there's Jimmy Miller.

This is mind-blowing to me as someone from a country where people are seldom shot and the only gunshots we hear around here are aimed at ducks.
What Ramones song is about Fellatio for cash?

Steve sounds bitter whenever he talks about other popular bands
Yeah, he wishes he could write as good as Frank Black. He says he didn’t care much for their music. I think he’s envious.
@@tommythevenot7617 he didn't like their music yet he produced their biggest record.
@@tommythevenot7617lmao
@@tommythevenot7617he says that while talking about what he likes is irrelevant to what his job is recording...
he's just a true snob. he's discerning. too many people think you should like everything these days. it's ok to have a very particular aesthetic
What an amazing interview, what more can i say????
