Nice list of Kurt's, I'll have to check it out! Most of the stuff I've never heard but if it's what influanced Kurt I'm going to have to I guess. Best concert I've ever been to was them in October of 93 in Chicago. Most concerts are forgettable, but that one I'll carry with me till I die. Doubt there'll be anyone like Kurt ever again.
I heard once on MTV, don't remember who it was, but they were talking about how there literally will never be another as big as Kurt again. That ever since his rise and ultimate demise that there's been an ingrown fear instilled in celebrities/Hollywood to never get that big again out of fear of the same thing happening to them. And when you think about it there might be something to it because really noone has even come remotely close to his level of success since, yet in today's media driven society there's more then enough ample opportunities for a band/individual to do so.
One other thing most people don't realize or are not willing to admit about Nirvana, but unlike so many before and the few afterwards, his/their success was reached before his death. Nirvana/Kurt literally erased off the map an entire generation of music, and that was only a few months after Teen Spirit hit big, their first real single.
Anyway if anyone hasn't checked out the box set yet, do so. Not really for the fairweahter fans but definately for the diehards. Some really rare early stuff on there. And for the fairweathers they just released a single album version with the best songs froj the box set called "Sliver: The Very Best Of The Box".
What kind of music do you listen to now?
