Dave Grohl's Sound City Soundtrack Details (A Top Story)

The soundtrack, Sound City - Real to Reel, will be released on March 12th by Grohl's Roswell Records.

The album will feature collaborations between Grohl and Stevie Nicks, Trent Reznor, Josh Homme, Rick Springfield, Slipknot's Cory Taylor and Paul McCartney.

The McCartney track, "Cut Me Some Slack," was performed live by McCartney and the surviving members of Nirvana (Grohl, Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear) last week during the 12-12-12 concert in New York, and was also released to iTunes.

The documentary is set to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, and be released February 1 in theaters and via digital download.

Grohl, who will travel to Sundance next month along with select artists featured in the film and its forthcoming soundtrack album had this to say, "As a first time director, I am humbled to be able to share my passion for songwriting and storytelling with this incredible cast of legendary musicians, as seen through the extraordinary story of America's greatest unsung recording studio, Sound City. Being included in this group of artists is a true honor, and the Sundance Film Festival is the perfect place to premiere a film about craft, integrity, and passion for art. I am over the moon!"

Sound City, the film, was conceived by Grohl after purchasing the legendary custom-built Neve 8028 recording console from Sound City Studios last year. The board, built in 1972, is considered by many to be the crown jewel of analog recording equipment, having recorded such artists as Neil Young, Fleetwood Mac, Tom Petty, Cheap Trick, Guns N' Roses, Fear, Nirvana, Rage Against the Machine, Slipknot, Nine Inch Nails, Metallica, and countless other musical legends over the past 40 years. - See the tracklisting and guest list here.
