In this episode of the podcast, revered rock writers Joel and Mick pick over the brilliant but all too brief life of the scion of Seattle, the golden boy of grunge, Kurt Cobain. In a brief but blistering 4 years, Kurt went from social outcast to being the poster boy for the alternative music scene, The music he spearheaded, and the bands who followed in his slipstream (Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains and the rest) would completely change the musical landscape almost overnight. And though grunge lives on in various ways, it was a scene that coalesced with Cobain and which effectively died with Kurt's suicide. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
