I was allowed in the studio during the recording of “12 Songs,” with producer Rick Rubin in the house. This was an awesome experience. I literally got chills while listening live. Neil’s management wanted to know “what had happened” – he had only approved 10 minutes of behind the scenes shooting – but had allowed me to tape for almost an hour. Experience pays off.
