Remembering Kurt Cobain & Layne Staley Who Both Died 30 & 22 Years Ago Today RIP

[Bill Walker]

Kurt Coldbrains eh? He was a member of that stupid 27 club. That was the age when they committed suicide: Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison too.

Hendrix died at 27.

Loved both bands when I was younger.
Probably appreciate AIC now I'm a bit older.

Nutshell on MTV unplugged is unreal.

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

Cobain is up there with Morrison

Both had a huge impact at the time. Cobain was the voice of grunge in the early 90's and without Morrisons contribution we might still be in division two.

For how well nirvana were received when they came to prominence just something sticks with me that they were the start of the death of 80’s rock from crazy concerts and video’s to depressing music that would have you throw a rope up but then again maybe that’s me stuck in the 80’s oh well..

Alice in Chains are my favourite band from the Seattle grunge scene that emerged in the late 80s/early 90s. Soundgarden, Nirvana and Pearl Jam are all excellent too.

Love this performance:



Staley was an incredible talent. His work with Mad Season was amazing too.

Two excellent MTV Unplugged sets as well. The Alice in Chains one is a bit haunting as one of Staley's last performances.

Just say no, kids

Never heard the Alice in Chains unplugged set - will give that a go.

Cheers mate.............
