Paul McCartney and Nirvana Video

As part of the Hurricane Sandy relief concert, the surviving members of Nirvana got together with the biggest still-living name in recording history and kicked out a little jam:




Some thoughts:

• This sounded damn good.  Shades of "Helter Skelter"
• Paul still has "it."  The guy is 70 years old, but looked the full part of a rock star with a group that could have been his children.  Hope I'm doing something that active when I'm 70.
• What class for McCartney to play guitar, and leave Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic his instrument.  For perhaps the most iconic bassist in music history to opt for a different instrument (played very well, mind you) was classy.

This will be a sure download when it shows up on iTunes on the 18th.  In the meantime, enjoy this video.
