Hardly surprising then that Dave Grohl has a particular soft spot for the place, he actually owns one of the mixing consoles and now, amongst the myriad of other projects he gets involved in is making his director debut (although that might not be accurate such is his work rate) for a new documentary on the studio which is due for release in February 2013.
Should make good viewing too, with interviews and music from many of the musicians and producers who worked there.
Oh yes and Grohl is currently working on the new Soundgarden video and Josh Homme's Queens Of The Stone Age as well as... oh never mind lets just say the mans positively ubiquitous.
