Jack Endino, who made his humble start in 1985 with a five-dollar-an-hour basement studio and a band named Skin Yard, would go on to produce records for some of rock's rawest and most influential bands. By the mid-'90s -- having worked with Nirvana, Mudhoney, Soundgarden, and Tad -- Endino had become synonymous with loud, unpolished, underground rock -- what the media labeled grunge.
Skin Yard, for which Endino played guitar, was formed in 1985 and featured Matt Cameron (drums), Daniel House (bass), and Ben McMillan (vocals). Their self-titled debut, recorded fall 1985 to winter 1986, served as Endino's first step into recording albums for commercial release (C/Z Records 1987).
