Man if it weren't for Dave Grohl's fine drumming, Nirvana would have been a painfully mediocre band. The more I see and hear Kurt Cobain the more unimpressed I am with him. And I once considered myself a fan fo the group, kind of.
There's a concert airing on the Palladia channel right now, that's why I mentioned it.

Chad Channing really was a bad drummer, but I think they would've been at least almost as good, as with Grohl, with some of the brief replacements like Dan Peters. Bleach is a good album, especially the slower songs, but some Channing live recordings are quite horrible drumming-wise. Grohl definitely took them to another level from that, I love his playing and sound on In Utero especially.

666 is no longer alone, He's getting out the marrow in your back bone, And
the seven trumpets blowing sweet rock and roll, Gonna blow right down inside
your soul. Pythagoras with the looking-glass, reflecting the full moon, In
blood, he's writing the lyrics of a brand new tune.

For a long time I credited my lack of skill as a guitarist to getting stuck for a few years playing all my favourite Nirvana riffs over and over again. It was fun, but not very challenging. Nowadays I credit my lack of skill to general laziness.

I allways almost cries when i watch docus about prog when they are talking about the faith of Cobain, really sad, he was a good spirit, whit an uncanny tallent, like Grohl he had an uncanny ability to always hit the correct note, and had a perfect dynamical tallant

Sounds like progress to me.

I'm planning on listening to that after I listen to their first three. I'm doing it in trios (IV, HoH, PG) (I, II, III) and (Presence, ITtOD, and and Coda)
