    Kurt's voice at 91 was his best, he forced it in a high tune through all that year and then, 92's 93's 94's he did lower tunes... Of course still rocking :')

      It was probably easier for him later on to go for a lower range from the destruction that his singing style did to his vocal cords. Still one of the best out their. A diamond in the rough.

    the way he sings "one baaaaaby to another..." at the beginning is so beautiful. his voice was so melodic and yet so raw at the same time...unlike any other rock singer. he could scream on pitch...its analagous to putting your voice through a distortion box. i absolutely love it. the john peel sessions are great because there are no studio tricks like on Nevermind so you get to hear the band so authentically.

    when you learn nirvana on guitar.. you realise that his melodies to the guitar riffs are the best possible ones.
    I cant imagine playing this riff on drain you and singing a different melody.. it wouldnt fit as perfect.

    While Kurt still went on to write more great songs, this was really the peak of NIrvana musically as performers: The release of Nevermind and the few months afterward. Still so much energy, they were still so tight. And his voice was so raw and powerful. Best version of Drain You for my money.

    • @dylanpenders

      Maybe because he was pushing his voice over the top from all the live shows before Nevermind was released.. It was probably easy for him to sing.

    This isn't exactly live. It was recorded in a studio just like the regular version, and they played the parts separately, but they probably took much less time putting it together and used no overdubs. But in most live versions of the song, Dave doesn't do the harmonies ( I don't think).

    The photo is in black and white and looks quite grainy. The woman in the picture also looks rather frail and has European features. Obviously concentration camps are not something to regularly joke about....but the comment was pretty witty and observant, based on the picture I was remarking on.

    re: defining a good guitarist. I think one must consider what it means to be a "good" artist in general. Certainly Andy Warhol is considered a great visual artist. However, he did not possess the technical skills of Leonardo DaVinci. Even without technical prowess, he used his personal vision to evoke emotion in a unique way. I think Cobain is a Warhol-type artist while more technical players like Eddie Van Halen are of the DaVinci type. Both are equally excellent but just different.
