| Quote carl_spackler="carl_spackler"People should form their own opinion, I'm not suggesting otherwise. I simply asked why the image of Cobain was the focus of your criticism if all you go by is the music as you claimed?
You've actually commented very little on the music, focussing largely on Cobain's persona and popularity. You've labelled him a douchebag, a poster boy, a fraud, a fake, and a phony, and criticised him for craving superstardom, praise and adoration (and blowjobs). The only comments about the music were that he was a mediocre musician and very poor guitarist, and that the music was aimed at young teenagers (and I'm not sure how the latter issue is inherently a bad thing, tbh).
So my question was simply; if you only go by what music sounds like to you, why does the rest bother you so much to provoke such venom, and why do you think people should be made aware of such background information to be able to judge his/their music? Couldn't you just not like Nirvana, and other people listen to Nirvana and decide whether or not they do? From what you've written I think it's fairly clear that you [idon't[/i only go by what the music sounds like.'"  |

Great guitarist. On a similar note, I'd add Stevie Ray Vaughan. |

Indead, i will also add the late great Jeff Healey to the mix, as Patrick Swayze once said in the movie Roadhouse "you play pretty good for a blind white boy", he wasn't wrong there |

Corny film, great soundtrack. Confidence Man is probably my favourite of his, though. |

| Quote BrisbaneRhino="BrisbaneRhino"
Cobain and Nirvana were brilliant live on the Nevermind tour[u (I saw them along with about 200 others at Bradford Uni)[/u. Dave Grohl was, well, just the drummer. I can tell you for a fact that the gig I went to was before any Cobain hype because when they came on stage nobody recognised them at all. They looked like roadies.'"
I was at that gig. I found the ticket stub in my loft last weekend and got well nostalgic. It was an amazing night. |

You where at every gig.
Like some sort of weird cuckoo turfing the eggs from the nest.

Certainly not young however, the world is a lesser place without the great BB King in it. One of the most important musicians of all time, and at his peak one of the best voices in the business.
I'd recommend "Live at the Regal" as one of the finest albums ever, and probably my favourite live album.
