Rick Rubin in the Studio with Black Sabbath

If you think bands don't need mission statements, think again. Great clip of famed producer Rick Rubin talking about his work with Black Sabbath. Great producers, like great leaders, help define the vision and objectives. There is freedom in structure.

I wouldn't mind being Rick Rubin for a couple years. Seems like he's been living the dream since he started.

Word.

For real haha! Did he even work his way up or did the first band he recorded take off? 😂

Rick has been working hard since he started, basically running Def Jam out of a tiny college dorm without them knowing in the beginning.

[@dfredankey]

Nope. Steve Butler made better records.

[@StevieV]

Ok right now I'm learning Brad Wilk played with Sabbath?!

[@1Deep43VA]

Rick… you should’ve demanded they work out whatever it was that kept Bill Ward off.
And Brad, nothing personal, I love Audioslave

[@cRobbone88]

That was Bill's place behind the kit!!

[@thepandorica1]

He shouldnt have gotten so out of shape then.

[@TweedSuit]

Rubin: I want to make an album sound like early Sabbath.
Sabbath: We don't need you for that.
Rubin: Cool. I'll just lie down and listen.

[@TweedSuit]

I just wish Rodger Bain could see this and have a laugh.

[@stretchmorgan]

Where is Bill?

[@blasterofmuppets4754]

Bill was out of shape. You know drinking and stuff ..... also he's old.

[@duvanc781]

@@blasterofmuppets4754 Nahh Bill can still play... They didn't agree financially... Bill said they offered him a shit contract.

If I was a really great band, I could not take Rick, jack of all trades master of none....
