don't think that Cobain was a god or worthless scum, I enjoyed his
music. He wasn't a pioneer, innovator, legend, or even one of the
greats. He was simply a guy in a band. I thought it was amazingly odd
that Rolling Stone would keel over and offer up a whole issue to Cobain
after giving only 6 pages to the great and amazing Frank Zappa (although
they were very well written pages.) Then again, Nirvana is what the kids
of today masturbate to, and that sells CD's, magazines, and bluejeans.
(And believe you me, it takes a lot for me to even muster something about
the kids of today at the ripe old age of 22.)

Completely untrue. As a matter of fact I was just reading on the AP that
there is a new tie for second. Thriller sold something along the lines
of 24 million copies. Bruce Springsteins "Born in the USA" just recently
tied Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours" at 14 million. This is, of course, only
in the US, but I can't imagine that it's much different elsewhere.

I am not sure if this is true, but I find this a bit odd too. I
thought Rumours was the third best-selling album, but no matter, I
know the order is something like this (2/3 might interchange if you
are correct):
Thriller
Saturday Night Fever
Rumours
Dark Side of the Moon
So isn't it strange that Bruce Springsteen would suddenly tie for
second spot bypassing SNF and DSoTM? (And there's a couple of million
copies difference between each consecutive ranking.)
And it is pretty different over the world, depending on the artist. I
imagine Thriller is high because it is popular worldwide, and the same
might be said for DSoTM.

You're right, Nirvana was good. Hell, I even liked it, and I generally hate
seattle sound. But, the point is, THE DUMB-ASS KILLED HIMSELF!! How the
hell can someone create music that an entire nation loves, and then BLOW HIS
GREY MATTER INTO THE SUNLIGHT?!? So what if a nation mourned? that doesn't
change the fact that HE'S WORM FODDER!! Hell, another CD from Nirvana would
have been getting ridiculous anyways. Now, if he'd destroyed every single
CD, tape, and master in existance, then he would've touched my heart, BUT
HE'S GONE, YET THE MUSIC REMAINS!! Well, I think I'll slap some Nirvana in
the CD player, and think happy thoughts 'cause COBAIN'S DEATH DIDN'T MEAN
A FUGGIN' THING!! And by the way, my suicide wouldn't make the news because
I'm not a MORONIC, PITIFUL, SORRY, SLIME-SUCKING, TWINKLE-TOED IDIOT THAT

I concur! Cobain was worhtless---Rush Limbaugh was right on the money with his

Thriller (gag!) is still number 1 (don't know how many copies),
Rumors (Fleetwood Mac) and that irritating Bruce Springsteen
album are neck-n-neck for number 2 with 14 million each.

It just so happened that in today's (Monday) Raleigh News and Observer,
there appeared a little story about this very subject. It seems that
Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA" album has moved into a tie with
Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours" as the second best selling album in history.
Both are listed with 14 milliion in cumulative sales according to the
Recording Industry Association of America. Michael Jackson's "Thriller"
is still by far in first place with 24 million in sales as reported in
the story.
And Cobain is still six feet under without any true hope of his fans
following in his footsteps (or in the bloody trail of his brain for that
matter.)

It's bullshit. Springsteen's 7th album just tied Fleetwood Mac's Rumours for
#2, with 14 million sold each. Thriller still is #1 with 24 million sold.

This is an emergency!! Follow my instructions without question!!! Grab
your shirt collar, or the hair on the back of your head with both hands.
Pull. Pull hard!! If you're lucky, your head will pop out of your
syphillitic, pus filled ass before your brain is completely dead! The fact
that you bought seven or eight copies of some lame Nirvana album, and only
six copies of Thriller doesn't mean that everybody else has made the same
tragic mistakes. The fact is that Nirvana would need to sell 14 million
copies of an album to even make the top three in sales, and they aren't
even close.
If they sold so many

Just for all of you that cared, Curt had a big Heroin problem, he (one
of the two I can't remem) had a $300/day habit or a $1200/day habbit I
can't remember which. And that particular evening, he had purchesed 3X
that. He was a dead man before he used a shotgun.

Sorry man. That's no proof. What the morons buy is no indication
of music being good or not. Nor any art in fact. Tell me, do _you_ consider
Thriller to be the best alum ever? (OK maybe you do, but that's your
opinion). Different people like different music, & what is superb for
one is shite for another. Surely you get teeny bands making no. 1
in the US... Do you think they are any good? No way.
Nirvana got to the top by an attractive front man, decent voice,
angst lyrics and pop/grunge music.

I'm afraid not. If it wasn't Nirvana it would have been someone else.
The people who really make a difference are the ones who are cutting edge.
Generally small bands who do new stuff. Nirvana are pretty middle of
the road IMHO. If someone who has _real_ status in his particular field
does something different, people sit up and take notice. Mr Cobain did
nothing new, & had v. little effect.

Well, I like their music a lot and I was a mite upset when I heard. But
only because it meant no more albums. Oh yeah, I felt a little sorry for

Just thought I'd comment on the little waste of time that people have been
posting here venting their share of explicatives etc. over someone and a group
that I don't feel should be on alt.music.prog........ I saw a post where
someone was discussing Zappa and kurtie and I had a few things come to mind:
I just picked up a copy of some guitar mag that was a Zappa tribute (they also
had a tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughn in a separate mag but the name slips me
sorry!) It essentially discussed how Frank worked his tail off and how he
would not hire or work with people cashed out on drugs or whatever....The man
worked (rough quote) "sometimes 20 hours a day--until I couldn't stand up any
more" Let's look at that--not only was Frank a clean guy but he was always
having his energy sucked out of him from recording, writing, managing his
company, legal tirades-jeeez! the gut said he only watched TV news for
entertainment! He didn't see the need to go out and be all glitzy and I feel
that to compare the two together is an atrocity. Frank made God knows how many
albums, stood up for what he believed in and took no plooking from anyone. He
deserved a heck of a lot more than whatever rolling ston(er) attributed to
him--incidentally I quit reading that cheap excuse for bowel-fodder-bunghole
cleaner as soon as they voted barry mannilow as performer of the year(I don't
think that Frank knew there was a contest going on anyway!) I just can't
listen to nirvana (which means complete eternal bliss) and then compare it to
"Dancin' Fool", "St. Alfonso's Pancake Breakfast", or the Yellow Shark and feel
that they should be on the same spectrum of greatness--that is WRONG and so
while our regulars are here tapping into the bleeding sores of the nirvana
crew as it slowly dies looking for some network that will listen to it whine,
and getting EXACTLY the response that they were looking for "But wad, Fucked,
Dick, Pud,Butt monkey, jerk, pooter-head, Anal Conquistidors, But pirate, etc."
or whatever, Please remember that this is for progressive music--I'd much
rather hear about criticisms of current groups or the masters than some people
who just played to sad poetry--minimalistic, fine but for GOD's sake they
should have taken it somewhere!!!!! Just listen to the first Yes album then
go listen to Close to the edge---or Freak Out! by Frank then go listen to
Jazz from Hell with the Synclavier--(I don't think kurtie could have plugged
this in by himself, let alone use it) PROGRESSIVE!!!!! Key word here
PROGRESSIVE!!!!!! for those of you looking to vent or look to swear I,
along with I am sure many other Progs would like to politely ask you to let
the dead horse lie and leave it at that so we don't have to remove a ton
of jibberish BS that has absolutely nothing to do with a.m.p!
As far as Rush goes I thinks you have to watch or listen to the Big Man before
you lay into him. To tie in another Rush quote that a Friend told me about,
He said that the whole generation X thing is being brought on by a bunch of
middle-aged media bread-boffers!(not a direct quote*) I read the USA today a
few weeks ago and saw how Generation X was now becoming the Beat generation
again--HAHA! They seem to think that since 30 or more college students
traveling by bus around the US for an English class and getting credit for it
constitutes (A) these 30 or more are the generation X and (B) we are lost and
hopeless, destined to hit a downward spiral at any moment ending in the
complete destruction of human civilization AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!--Sounds a little
like a literary prize than the best in news coverage in America at the moment
eh? BTW, When I was reading this garbage in USA Today, I recalled(1)
how we read On the Road in High School, it was cool and full of perspectives
that opened a whole new realm of thinking for me and (2) King Crimson's
Beat(progressive!!!) and all the cool songs from their 80's stuff(Sheltering
Sky by Bowles and stuff from Casssidy, too all from researching stuff about
progressive bands !) And to put a more personal touch here, My Dad had no clue
what he was going to do after high school and even during college, he just sort
of drifted along and he always said to be true to what you are and believe in
yourself-- things paid off for him and they still are--the guy's 68 and a
conservative live and let live-er--is he in Generation X too? With that I hope
that we can now get back to MUSIC.
kurtie's gone.......time to move on (Flame away if you must but myself I do
trust, I'd love to stay but VROOM! is just two days away!!!

Wrong. Heroin is not substantially toxic, and addicts can function
normally, provided that they have a decent support system. After
_Nevermind_ i seriously doubt that his heroin addiction would have
that much of a chance of killing him. He might, of course, have
decided to try to kill himself with heroin -- but he tried the valium
and alcohol route previously and it didn't work... And in this case
the drugs aren't substantially different than the shotgun.
And think for a moment -- even presuming your rumormongering was
correct -- maybe that was what he was planning on using for the next
three days before he decided to kill himself?

Yo, you pile of Red spoonge,
Did Cobain import you as his sex-toy, or did you volunteer to be repeated
corn-holed until some buffalo dick impaled your brain causing
irreparable damage to your humor centers? Inquiring minds want to know.
BTW, comrade, how does one get laid in Moscow in the winter? I mean, is
it difficult to dis-impact the 37 pounds of snow that gets lodged up a
Russian bitch's snake receptor? Or are ex-Soviet tools made out of the
same crappy cast iron that every thing else in your country is made of
so that they crack off under the least little pressure? Of course, this
presumes that there is any pressure applied to them in the first place.
I've always heard that the average Russian prick is about two inches
long, whereas the average Russian snatch has a volume approaching that of
a small television set. In fact, it's no wonder Russian women are so big -
one needs a large life-support system for caves that size.

Kurt Cobain is God's gift to music and he knows it. And Rush's opinion
belongs in a bidet, rather than a shitter.
I'm getting rather good at spotting trolls. I'm also good at spotting test
groups in the newsgroups: lines.

potential to be new Kurt Cobains. I wrote this poem on the day I heard of
Kurt's death, just after my girlfriend and I had made love while 'Nevermind'
played on the stereo. I dedicate this poem to Kurt.
I lay on her bed
And cuddled her near.
She was beautiful
And my excitedness
Was matched only by
My disbelief at
How this situation could appear.
"Listen", she said,
"Can you hear my heart?".
All I could hear
As I rested my head
On her scented breast
Was my genitals shouting
"Fuck her brains out, you fuckin' fart !"
OK kids, calm down, I know it's brilliant. I'll be your new Kurt Cobain.

Rush is a sensible fellow.. Just because you might not like "Spotted

Look i don't want to compare Zappa to Kurt. I don't think that Kurt
produced anything that compares with Zappa. I had kind of hoped that he
might one day amount to something -- at least he appeared to be searching for
a clue unlike a lot of top 40 acts that don't appear to have one and didn't
appear to care about it...
Have i come off sufficiently cynical of Kurt's godlike musical talent to
pass the alt.music.progressive political correctness exam?
But while not worshipping him as a god, i don't feel like stomping on him
either. Kurt wasn't "clean" -- in fact he was addicted. This, doesn't,
however, make him scum. Anyone who thinks so needs to get a little
respect for the difficultly in dealing with a addiction and the psychological
factors that are involved with it. Take a few upper division psych courses,
talk to a psychologist, read a fucking book for a change -- or better yet
go out and find out about it firsthand...

Ok, fine. Set me straight. Did I grow up in the completely wrong
generation, or wasn't "Pink Floyd"s album Dark Side of the Moon the
most selling album of all time?
I know that if you break it into groups, like "Most albums sold by a
grunge band who's leader wore flannel and killed himself with a shotgun",
silly and talentless groups like Nirvana seem to be high up there, but
what fucking sources would you like to quote? I don't have anything to
quite about Pink Floyd, but they have been around for a HELL of a long time,
and I have ALWAYS heard the DSotM was the best selling album of all time.
Some music master, please set me straight. I *know* Kurt Coldbrain didn't
sell the most, but who did?

Is it Cobain, or his suicide generating all this attention? Lots of
people think suicide to be cowardly, but it's kind of a paradox ---
how would a coward have the nerve to blow his brains out? At the same
time, leaving an infant and wife behind isn't very cool. Toss in heroin
and bisexuality, and a lot of folks want to dance on his grave singing
"Hahahahahahaha!!! Kurt is Dead!!!" If they didn't like his music it
even gets worse; they might compare him to a real toe tapper, like Frank
Zappa, who had the decency to die naturally. I think Kurt said it best:
"What else should I be
All apologies"

What #1? There are a dozen #1's and different ways to get there.
Isn't Pink Floyd's Darks Side of the Moon "#1" for longest on Billboard's
top (###) list?
Isn't ABBA a "#1" for some world record selling thing...
Isn't Stairway to Heaven "#1" on just about every listener poll that these
damn radio stations inceccsntly pull out evrey year around this time
Isn't My Sharona "#1" for fastest selling, or quickest rising single
... need I go on...
BTW I have absolutly no proof of any of these staements, just a collection
of "I heard that..."
oh and one more... Isn't Kurt Ka-Bang the "#1" stupidest way to get out
of a recording deal? :)

Even were your erronious presumption were true, everyone still has
their right to their opinion, and the right to voice it, even when
it contradicts yours. Check back in five years and see if Cobain is
talked about in the same voice with Hendrix or Joplin.

Whoo-ha. Frank Zappa was a great musician, but I don't think he *chose*
to develop a prostate the size of a coconut (it's supposed to be about
walnut-sized (and -shaped, too!(but squishier))). It just sort of happened,
unfortunately. I mean, hey, you can live without a prostate. It's too
bad he didn't have it removed before it metastasised, but hey, he's dead and
so are John Lennon, Karl Marx, Jesus, the Buddha, and DeForrest Kelley. And
there's no use crying over it anymore. Rain falls on the just and the
unjust alike - yes Jimi Hendrix shot himself too, but Motley Crue live on.
Pearl Jam's drummer died, but he wasn't all that famous or original and
I don't even know his name, so I guess that doesn't matter. Yes Kurt Cobain
was a leader for a generation - but HE DIDN'T WANT TO BE (sorry I'm shouting).
So many people loaded all their projections onto him, especially their
abused child/underdog archetype, that he couldn't withstand it. Same thing
with Marylin Monroe: she was crushed under the weight of the "sexy woman"
projections of an entire nation. Small wonder she blew up that plane!
So all of you folks out there, learn something from when your (or yr.) idols
die. They're mortalllll, just liiiiiike yoooooooou! They can't get rid
of your problems, and what's more, they probably don't care much about it.
No matter how directly you thought Kurt was speaking to you when he was
swearing he didn't have a gun, *you* were *not* the one for whom he wrote
the song.
Plus, he was obviously lying.

nearly vomit. Good job. You're obviously very clever. Let me know when
someone who really means a lot to you dies. Hell, even if it's just
someone who you consider very talented - even admirable. I'll be sure
to show you the same courtesy you've shown me and everyone else to whom
Kurt Cobain ever meant anything. -Pam *

Seconded, and cut out alt.suicide.holiday while you're at it. Cobain
might have blown his brain out all over the floor with a 12-gauge
shotgun (at least the man picked the right method), but that doesn't
mean this thread doesn't bore us to death.

Jesus, what are you, a fucking MORON?? Kurt was never on "Growing
Pains!" You must be thinking of Michael J. Fox, who also did those "Back to the
Future" movies with Lloyd Bridges. Fox is NOT dead, but the kid from "Small
Wonder," played by Joey Lawrence, almost died from a heroin overdose. He
sobered up, and is now appearing weekly on the sitcom "All-American Girl." I
hope this sets you straight.

posted as a forward from a rabid K.C. fan/researcher
the story of Kurt Cobain from age 13:
lived on the streets from age 13, as a runaway. became a
foster child, shunted from foster home to foster home. This is the time he
became introduced to heroin. Bought his first guitar at age 14. met Chris
Novosac, and started writing songs.
He enjoyed writing anti-homophobe graffiti on the side of
logging trucks ("god was gay"). Married Courtney love(from "hole"). Fathered
Francis Beam Cobain.
the point- (a summary of a speech)
Kurt Cobain (1967-1994) was a man who 'felt' things.
hhe felt strongly about discriminating against anyone, and felt that he
should speak out. This speaking out, along with his songwriting, made him
famous. He didn't seek fame, it found him, and when it did, he hated it. he
coulden't escape from being *KURT COBAIN*, with all the expectations that
that implied. the only escapes were drugs and death. he took the latter
(eventally) when the former failed. No matter what you personally think of
Kurt, no-one can deny that he influenced a lot of people, and in 10 years
time, we may find that Kurt Cobain altered the way we thinkabout the world,
our lives and what we listen to.
"if you hate people of different colours or races. If you
hate homosexuals, the don't buy our records, and don't fucking come to our
concerts either"
- Kurt Cobain( not a perfectly accurate quote, more a
paraphrase)

Too late. They're already all dead. The freshest two corpses are Dizzy
Gillespie & Miles Davis. If you know who they were, perhaps you could post
something interesting about them, their lives, their deaths. Otherwise just
put a cork in it, 'kay honey?

Hey, sweetheart! He's been dead for *how* many months now? You planning on
getting over it soon, or are you going to be like the burners hanging around
in doorways mourning Hendrix to this day?

Thanks. I feel the same way. I mean, just because someone, a talented
musician that *some* people feel got a little too much recognition, goes
and blows up an airplane with himself on it doesn't mean it's time to go
laughing at him.
I'm sure you'll be getting lots of email about this, though, not only from
people who agree with you, but from automated test reply sites. I did not
do this. Some sad, sick individual(tm) did it to torture people who hold
Kurdt's memory dear.

I just tuned in to this thread with the above post so I don't know the
conversation to this point. Albert Walker may have said something "STUPID"
but to say he goes to a "stupid South Carolina school" is a little absurd.
Oh, by the way, demarol is spelled Demerol, and "heated-up" Demerol doesn't
cause Parkinson's disease - MPTP, a side product of synthesis, is thought to
be an etiologic agent in the development of parkinsonism.

You're very welcome. Now let this be a lesson to you, you whiny bitch.
If you like Kurt Cobain (lord knows why, the best music the man made
was his Concierto for Shotgun and Dripping Brain) and you are one of
those pisswimps who gets offended easily (apparently you are) then
perhaps it would not be wise to read an article whose subject
header reads "HAHAHAHA!!! KURT COBAIN IS DEAD!!!!!" It will most
likely be offensive to you. Thus endeth the lesson. Now give my
hairy shaft a good lubing, will you sweetie?
Oh, and I hope you enjoy the test responses.

There's no doubt that Cobain led a hard life---but so did many other

ultimate choice and he has the freedom to do what he wants. Me, I
wouldn't have the guts to blow my brains. I don't care---it's good

This is an example of the brainwashing perpetuated by the relativistic
moment in this country, which simply dulls the mind. No one stops to
give reasons anymore? No one asks "why?" The Closing of the American
Mind goes into this into great detail, but to paraphrase "the mind
without prejudices at the outset is an empty mind."

Dianne Parkinson is DEAD?!?!? Oh, my God! Who's going to point
to products on "The Price is Right" now??? To be honest, though, I never
believed all that stuff about her being forced to have sex with Ray
Parker, Jr...I think it was just a ploy to sell more copies of her auto-
biography, like when Ronald Reagan announced he had Lou Gehrig's disease
to sell more copies of Nancy's book. It's a sad statement on the level
some people will stoop to for money.
And what ever happened to Ray Parker, Jr? I haven't heard
anything from him since he did the theme from "Top Gun." Just another
one-hit wonder, I suppose.
