Nigel Godrich Interview
Jun 24th, 2008 by admin
Our web friend Johnny had an interview with the “6th Radiohead“ Nigel Godrich and gave me permission to put here a part of the interview! I suppose that it is not necessary to write about Nigel, who started cooperating with Radiohead for The Bends! Here are a few questions that Nigel Godrich answered:
Q: What’s your most memorable in-studio moment?
Nigel: The first time I was left alone with Radiohead as a young, inexperienced and hungry person, while we recorded ‘The Bends’.
Q: Was there a moment when you decided to get into music?
Nigel: When I was maybe eight or nine I was a big fan of The Police. I had ‘Reggatta de Blanc’. I used to love it. At the back it said, “produced By Nigel Grey”. His name was Nigel, it told me, ‘it’s possible to do a job in music’. It’s one of those things that don’t seem to make sense at the time…
Q: Tell us about getting that first break…
Nigel: I got a job at Audio One and sat there with my pager waiting for people to order tea or coffee. It was the really famous Trident studio once, Hey Jude, Transformer and Hunky Dory were recorded there. When I got there we were making advertising jingles. It got me in and I moved to Mickie Most’s studio. Suddenly I was around people making records all the time, it took off from there.
