Rehab Center to detox from opiods. Duff mentioned that they didnt talk about heroin in the whole flight. And Duff invited a Kurt Cobain over his house to chill out. But that never happened cause Kurt Cobain dissapear from Duff's sight. I'm Duff said that was the last time he Saw Kurt Cobain. I'm sure that Kurt dissapear from Duff because he was craving heroin and was having the heaviest withdrawals.

Tom Petty was and still is a TRUE TROUBADOUR. He will be remembered for being a great human being, an amazing lyricist. When listening to TomPetty and The Heartbreakers the relation to the meaning of this bands music completely is relatable to most people. I love the era of GRUNGE but really didn’t connect to that label of this style of music. What it did in my view was completely energize us all. I simply loved it all. Alice and Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam will always be favorite bands for me. RIP Layne Staley and Chris Cornell. DAMN IT! We could have had so many more great songs from those guys.

The guy who talked about Scentless Apprentice clearly was a real fan and not just a "Smells like the only Nirvana song you know" person.

As a metal fan who enjoys a bit of grunge music, the moment I heard Kurt was a big Metallica fan made tear up a little bit, here we have a big name in music passionately gushing and being hyped as fuck over another big name in music, it's just like the situation with Metallica getting to play with their Idols, Black Sabbath, Motorhead, Saxon, Judas Priest, Diamond Head and Queen. where the big name finally achieves his dream of making it big and standing side by side with his Idols.

Cobain was just getting started. He was only getting started....

Tom Petty one of the best quotes ever, just makes you smile.

Tom Petty, John Frusciante, Kirk Hamment, Slash, this is a fucking cool compilation. I know it's late, but thanks for putting this together.

Damn I miss Kurt... and forgot how good Nirvana was

Here's a list of some the songs that paved the way for an album like "Nevermind" to get big. Guns N Roses "Welcome to the jungle" Which talks about the extreme poverty and cocaine addiction the band were going through, according to Slash' book, the band in the wintertime actually demolished a wooden fense of the appartment they were living in at the time in order to warm up the place by burning the material indoors because of them not being able to pay the heating bill. Metallica "One" Now Metallica were seasoned veterans, and already had several world tours on their portfolio by the time that "And justice for all" was released. But it was a stroke of luck that made this very unlikely song and it's eerie video the thing that propelled them into the mainstream. It certainly wasn't the usual "Unskinny bop" multicolor video that the MTV audience at the time was used to seeing. Red Hot Chili Peppers "Knock me down" Like Metallica the Peppers had been around for several years greeted usually with indifference, nobody expected their blend of rap, Funk and rock to work. This was the first song of theirs to be put on decent rotation on MTV and the first song that had people recognising them on the street. In Anthony Kiedis' book "Scar tissue" he recalled that he and guitarist John Frusciante were getting into a cab and the driver went "Hey you're those guys from that song 'Kick my ass' I love that song!" And that song is really dark talking about founding member Hillel Slovak's heroin-related death. Pixies "Debaser" If there's one band who already had the template on what Grunge should sound like, it would be The Pixies, the whole Loud-quiet thing and screamed vocals was already there. Jane's addiction "Stop" Now if bands like the Pixies were instrumental for Nirvana and other punk based bands to get big, it was Jane's addiction who made it possible for bands like Smashing Pumpkins to add Pink Floyd like long passages and solos in their work. This video also shows a scene from which bands like Pearl Jam came from: the Surf community. The Cure "Lullaby" Again, the Cure had been around for a long time before they finally cracked the USA. God knows how many goth band that's around right now took a page from their book when this frankly creepy nightmarish video appeared on MTV. Robert Smith said that he didn't think that The Cure was an influential band until Dinosaur Junior covered "Just like heaven" and in doing so introduced The Cure to an American audience. Pantera "Cowboys from hell" Now if the general consensus of the changing musical tide was going from "Let's party" to "Party's over" can be contained into one song, it could well be THIS one, combining the fury of a massive bar fight, the "FUCK YOU!" attitude of punk and the ferocity of a Gatling Gun. Metal was here to stay and it was more brutal than ever.

I remember hearing about his death on the radio and it was such a shock I had listened to never mind the night before coincidentally. There will never be another talent like him.

0:34 - That gave me chills.

"And then Kurt came in...like a Phoenix..you know" -Tom Petty

John is truly a Genius... and thank God he is still alive at least

everybody loves him ! That's so cool , i will him to (: R.I.P. Kurt ♥

Anyway to get back on Kurt Cobain and his influence on killing off hair metal bands and early boybands like the New Kids on the block, people are still saying that when "Nevermind" came out that everything changed but I'll say that even before it got out, the music scene already was changing from "Let's party" to "Party's over" And it started as early as 1987 that Alternative rock and real metal (Not the LA sunset strip hair bands like Motley Crue, Cynderella, Bon Jovi and Poison) began to bubble up into the main stream if you take a look at the high selling albums that came out from 1987 until 1991 you'll see my point here. Because among them were: Guns N Roses - "Appetite for destruction" Metallica - "And justice for all" and "Metallica" (AKA "The Black album") Red Hot Chili Peppers - "Mother's milk" and "BloodSugarSexMagic" Jane's addiction - "Nothing shocking" and "Ritual de lo Habitual" The Cure - "Desintegration" The Beastie Boys - "Check your head" The Pixies - "Doolittle" Alice in chains - "Face lift" Soundgarden - "Badmotorfinger" Pantera - "Cowboys from hell" Sonic Youth - "Goo" and "Daydream nation" All of those albums already had the hallmarks of what made "Nevermind" such a huge succes. So despite what seemingly everybody says that Grunge happened seemingly overnight, they actually had four years of clues about the musical climate already changing but simply ignored them. I'd say the pivotal moment of when "Let's party" turned into "Party's over" was when Guns N Roses' "Appetite for destruction" was released. Because when it was released it fit the need of people who wanted something real: not the overblown "I screwed so many chicks" Hairmetal that was being pushed down their throats. Guns 'N roses in those days were a band in the vein of the Rolling Stones, not very gifted musicians with swagger and 'tude. "Appetite" was about drug and alcohol addictions, living in poverty, the ruthlessness of living in Los Angeles and the wrong kind of women. Even their big hit "Sweet child o' mine" had a very dark forbading tone "Where do we go now?" "Appetite for destruction" became a million seller almost from the get-go and in doing so paved the way for the other bands I mentioned to hit the big time. "And justice for all" would have been just another Metallica album if the single "One" hadn't been picked up by MTV and had people going "Whoa, this is different, I like it." which was the same reaction they had when "Welcome to the jungle" came out a year earlier. So while "Nevermind" wasn't the album that swiped all the overblown boybands and hairmetal acts away, it certainly was the last nail in the coffin.

+DrPopCake that "guy" would be John Frusciante. He was actually clean for about 4 years at the time of the interview.

Didn't need to see Kirk Hammett lying about being into Nirvana before they were big.. or about Kurt liking Ride The Lightning.

Absolutely true. He mentioned twice...in a very short interview.... that Kurt was into Metallica and that RTL was his fav. album and whiplash was his favorite song. I never met Kurt, but if someone interviewed me about him, I'd think that I would have to worry about saying the same thing twice about him. But that's just Metallica for you, fake.

Joe garza Yeah.. ummm… no. Metallica, great group they they were, have been alienating their core audience and losing friends for a couple of decades, coincidentally since about the early nineties. They essentially just tour the world cashing in on former glories now like a heavier Rolling Stones who haven't done anything good in roughly 35 years but the money 'rolls right in'. To say Nirvana are not "still influencing" is incredibly naive in the extreme mate :/ no statute of limitations on great music/writing.

Two different genres... Two different bands. Both are amazingly successful and talented. Leave it at that.

It's time that rock and roll get another good kick in the ass.

There's something that i love with rock fans : they make live dead artists forever, so thanks to all of you guys, Kurt Cobain and Nirvana will live forever !!!

Notice how in an interview in 1994 Lars said he thought nirvana was kinda ok but since nirvana became a rock n roll legend he jumped on the bandwagon :/

Yeah, I didn't really give Micheal Jackson's music a real listen until after we was dead, I assume it's the same for Lars. Kurt was also a huge Metallica fan.

Perhaps Cobain envisioned a sweeping improvement in Rock music, starting with Nirvana, but little did he know that the "Grunge" wave would also gather up the normally giant group of morons along with it. The biggest irony for the end of this wave winds up being the biggest fans of his music became completely tone deaf to the quality music that preceded it.

I love how Kirk Hammet of Metallica tells of Kurt in the snake-pit just wanting them to play Whiplash! Just a true fan and regular guy...

I just realized that Cinna of the Capitol met Kurt Cobain. That guy must have so much fun in life.

Metallic doing teen spirit MY GOD amazing

music isnt the same today like now. man when i first listened to smells like teen spirit i thougt. here is somebody who understands the pain of an angry teen

Kurt was a great artist and from watching interviews with him he seemed like a cool and pretty smart person.

@Ivan Del Rio Dude im just reading your comments and as far as Kurt goes, yea i loved the man as a musician and i feel he gave us some of the worlds best song writing but you seem to be way to infatuated with Cobain more than a fan though which is whatever you wouldnt be the first. But than you start bashing people who are praising your hero and these are actually great artists lol. Lars is one of the best drummers ever, Kirk is amazing and has made some of the best riffs and solos in rock, and the reason i think people have such a big fascination with him is the same reason why alot of people who have past in the music industry get these kinds of fans, and its because they past in there prime, and you always wonder what if they were still alive and because of there short visit in the industry left him little room for mistakes and bad albums, coupled with his musical revolution makes him iconic. But what if someone from Metallica past and they only came out wit killem all and ride the lightning, Eminem only releasing Infinite n SSLP, or Guns N Roses coming out with only Appetite for destruction ( Big GnR fan and Axl Rose fan by the way which will probably piss you off also) than these guys and bands would be also so much more iconic than they already are. And if your argument is "he changed music" but so did Eminem being the first white rapper, Metallica being 1 of the big 4 to put Thrash metal on the map, and Guns N Roses being accepted in the realm of rock on the sunset strip without compromising there sound, selling out, being real, which earned them the title the most dangerous band in the world, All im saying is I understand your affection for him but dont let that blind you to being open minded to other music and trying not to judge or be condescending because the pressure is alot, bands grow and change as well as there music and some say than there sellouts. We dont know but Kurt if he were still here might of made a move that granted some fans to not like his turn. Dont be so harsh on judgment. And to clarify i am an immense Kurt Cobain fan and do wish he could still give us music.
