One such person was Dave Grohl himself, who has been talking about working with Paul McCartney and praising the legendary artist. Dave opened up about recording the song with Paul, which is titled Cut Me Some Slack, which was put together is mega quick time.
Grohl was talking to KROQ, when he explained, “We walked in, we jammed the song. It just came out of nowhere. The best songs happen that way. We recorded it live and put a vocal over it and that was it. It was three hours and it was perfect.”

He added, “One of the great things about playing with Paul McCartney is that that generation of musicians, they cherish and respect and value the practice of just going into a room and coming up with something and jamming and making it a song. There's not like seven songwriters and seven producers and digital technology or whatever. It's like people getting in a room.”
