Charizarzar how did they actually kick him out? Did kurt tell him personally? I couldn’t imagine telling my friend i want you out of this band I found someone better ... must be so hard ... does anyone know if they ever stayed in touch till his death?
Kurt was so well spoken, eloquent even. You could tell there was a lot going on in his head, he really thought about things before he said them. Krist is brilliant fun as always!
100% agree. First thing I thought when I heard him start talking here is "eloquent". On an unrelated note though, it's a bit odd to see him really trying to answer questions. Later years after Nevermind, Kurt generally seems a bit recluded from many interviews (but always as intelligent and eloquent as ever).
They had good quality digital cameras back then but they were very expensive. I remember seeing an old Elliott Smith tape and thinking “What? They had that then?”, and it turns out they did
Other TechLead , funny Dave Grohl has said so in interviews and even mentions at the Hall of Fame speech, with In Bloom. Do you know about the Smart Sessions prior to Nevermind ? Chad played on those recordings , there’s a lot that influenced songs on Nevermind, In Bloom, Lithium, Breed. Hell, Chad went uncredited for his small parts on Polly that was used in the final recording. All in all, Chad was on multiple albums and during a big part leading to Nirvana’s rise. There is no comparison to Pat Smear who was only added on as an extra guitarist.
Other TechLead wouldn’t say they didn’t think highly as Chad as a person but they felt creative differences as a player. It happens in bands, I’ve experienced that with other members. Shitlist sounds petty
@Other TechLead Who shit in your cereal? They didn't have anything against Chad and he wasn't on anybody's "shitlist." They just wanted a harder hitting, more polished drummer. "You can fantasize all you want/he was on their shitlist/end of narrative/Kurt & Krist thought..." Fucking listen to yourself. By the way, Grohl ABSOLUTELY said Channing influenced Nevermind and Dave has explained several times, with examples, INCLUDING at the HOF induction, how he played the EXACT parts Chad had come up with for songs like Breed, In Bloom, Lithium etc. You know dog shit, your attitude is dog shit and you're far too stupid to act so condescending towards amiable people like SpaceJaisen here.
Yeah, you're right. It doesn't make sense why something this old is this high quality. It's because Nirvana is fake. Never really existed. Cobain is still alive and they actually filmed this "first interview" pretty recently.
it doesn't matter what you look like (if your music is great). Adele ain't no supermodel, but her voice captured the world. Mac DeMarco is one ugly bastard, but his music is deeply beautiful There's even room in the mainstream for Post Malone
-S- Kint -S- having nice facial features it’s what most ppl call beautiful. He was a very good looking guy, and he wasn’t short, he was average...not tall not short
Before Courtney, and the Biggest battles. Its one opinion forged. Heroin was maybe done to push the voice at a maximum pressur ! Loud year after years. Help to confront all the people. The dragoon is something to live with when you develop your ADN as this young man have chosen. When you cannot be free inside the garden of fairy , the garden you helped to create the heroin seem to be one escape. In 1994 his band becoming dangerous against the puritan and the police of the enslaved, so They killed him with the help of the vanity of...
He was already f*ed up and negative at the highth of his career one year later, shortly after the release of nevermind and weeks before they became huge worldwide. you can see it in an interview from their tourstart in canada where he already had his hateful sarcastic behaviour treating every reporter like shit, not giving him one answer, not looking at him for a second during the whole conversation. at that point he already had big money from the geffen-signing in his pocket and spent it on heroin. I don't blame him at all, but it's obvious it made him a 24/7 paranoid prick, not easy to get along with. and that was before courtney. being alone and being strung out probably sucked. obviousely getting famous and falling in love a few weeks into the nevermind tour brought some happiness back in his life, especially having a baby, the dream of a happy family life, that was all of a sudden possible. no financial problems, having a wife and a kid and a house. but 1) being rich gave him the confidence to continue letting his frustration out on anyone, even his bandmates, and 2) addiction doesn't go away just from beeing rich and happy. it will at some point destroy you and bring the darkside into the happiest life. if he hated the media he could have just quit, he had enough money. but if you've dealt with depression and feelings of emptiness all your life and you're a sensitive person (i mean that as a huge compliment), if you're not deeply rooted into a happy family from childhood on, then new troubles in your currently happy life will likely seem impossible to face and you'll get suicidal thoughts (again) way faster than other people. A highly sensitive person person, unable to see the bigger picture, as his personal pain from his perspective became unbearable and always was too intense. There's no guilt. He was the (wonderful) person that he was. Drugs harm less sensitive people, not saying drugs killed him, that's bullshit, but they certainly make it harder to get your shit together. I'm a negative creep. That self-reflexion was written long before Courtney and heroin and long before this interview. He was born the way he was, and all of us have our positive and negative potentials. And let's not speculate. Suicides can be commited completely randomly, and noone knows the ways of the butterfly effects that lead to them. Of course its easier to get involved in the speculating about somebodys death (somebody we all didn't know) by accusing his evil narcisist wife. Well for me that's dumb. And I guess for Kurt it'd be too.
RebelThoughts82 obviously it was filmed in 1990 so I know that already ... what I mean is that kurt was never changed by money etc even when he became so famous ..
@@NickNicometi right. The ability to afford heroin for 500 $ a day plus the overwhelming fame is what led to his suicide, the last kickoff probably was the divorce, him & Courtney were going through.
I think thats what trauma does to you. This poor soul lived through so much fucked up stuff between the ages of 10 an 23, some people dont even get that amount in their full 80 years.
Kurt was born 3 days before me. I heard them on local college radio right before Bleach came out and it prompted me to buy a guitar. Turning 53 in a few weeks and think about this era and his passing every birthday. It's cool to hear what he said, even now.
Dale Grover was good too. We saw them August 1990 at the Melody Ballroom. There was so much POWER going through that place. The chandeliers were flickering, and Dale was drumming for them. Great show.
Kurt’s death had some impact on his legacy, but he was legendary whether dead or alive. His death didn’t make him the icon he became, he was already that. Such a unique, incredible guy.
The amazing thing about Kurt is that he's so eloquent and well educated on art, underground music, even philosophy, but he received zero family support. I'm always impressed when someone ends up with a really polished intellectual vibe despite nothing reenforcing that outcome in their surroundings.
His mom was always supportive. She always supported and showed affection to Kurt. Kurt’s aunt Marie and Uncle was also very supportive and affectionate. They bought him a guitar, a bass drum and his aunt gave him the Beatles records.
"It doesnt matter what you look like or anything. It doesnt matter what your product looks like, its what it sounds like" I wish that would still be the case in music nowadays but its the exact opposite
Damn its so weird to be 40 yrs old n watching these kids with such a promising future ahead. Kurt Cobain showing so much optimism. I was 15 when they found him. He was 27. Now I'm 40. I want to say that I wish Kurt is 52 but its hard to do, knowing how much pain he seemed to be in at the end..maybe not pain but disillusionment.. In some of his last interviews he seemed older at 27 than I do now..
"It doesnt matter what your product looks like, it's what it sounds like" And here in 2019, it's all about what the product looks like, not what it sounds like.
One of Kurt's best physical traits was his nose. All the talk is usually about how great his eyes were, which...yeah definitely. But people are SLEEPIN' on his nose. It's a great nose. He has a great profile all together.
"It doesn't matter what you look like or anything, it doesn't matter what your product looks like, it's what it sounds like". Right now, it's quite the opposite.
It was quite the opposite back in 1990 too. Before Nirvana hit big the charts were dominated by hair metal groups and boy bands. We've come full circle.
Hear, hear! I hate how young people today think our TVs back then were blurry because of the bad quality videos that get frequently uploaded -- no doubt taken from decades-old VHS tapes! One idiot even said, "I'm glad I live now, because I wouldn't want to have to squint to watch a show or movie." Yeah, no, we had clear images. You just couldn't see people's pores, like on HDTV.
Omg Kurt was so enthusiastic about what he was doing at the beginning. It's like night and day in perspective to what you see the vibe he gave off during Inutero and even late Nevermind. Holy shit. He even said 'grunge alternative'. That shit blows my mind.
The last quote from kurt struck me. "Doesnt matter what your product looks like, its what it sounds like". Kurt really helped define the grunge visual aesthetic which is massively influential today even in hiphop/trap fashion. Seems today that marketing and the visual and surrounding antics of new artists matter just as much if not more than the music. Maybe the lesson learned is to not be so clouded by the surrounding marketing of artists today and concentrate of having a good musical product.
Thank you kurt for being an inspiration and being the fuel to the sound ive created, the only human that ive been able to relate to was taken just as i was conceived. A legend died and a legacy left behind.
I understand the influence. Nirvana influence some of the stuff I wrote. Them, kings of Leon and R.E.M really gave me a layout on how to make music. Solid fucking riffs. Melodic but can stay fast paced and slow down if they want. Tight drummer and a fat chunky bass! ALOT artist use the same formula but it's something about those bands I listed that give me an artistic connection with that inspires me to write music using a formula like theirs.
Krist is so hilarious "a seaweed band or something" lmfao!! Kurt seemed like a real mellow, thoughtful guy. And he gave the best advice not just for musicians, but life in general. It may be cliché, but it's true. Short but very well done interview
This was a great and interesting interview! Honest opinions from all three original members. I moved from Eugene, Oregon to Seattle in 87-94 street skateboarder, into punk, the Music scene was there and was just taking off. So many great bands! I feel very fortunate to have been a part of that experience.
one of the few interviews that had Kurt opening up a bit at the end. looking over RUclips, he’s often commenting on a show, Seattle in general or his opinion on other headline bands at the time. The opportunity for him to give advice or a genuine comment and on available footage are far between.
yeah i think you should say that the other way around please don't put 2000s entertainment over late 80s-early 90s originality, just learn to not do that please.
Great interview! Chad seemed very aimable! Kurt is always waxing philosophic and sounds très artistic. My understand is that he cultured his look as much as his sound, but perhaps appearing not to give attention to one's look was the look!
It’s crazy that not even five years after this interview was recorded, they would become the biggest band on the planet and then end tragically, marking their place in music history forever.
this is so far my favorite nirvana interview because: -the tv station did a great job -this is my favorite nirvana line up with chad , bleach forever❤️ -the film quality looks as new as today 4/20/2018 and makes me think kurt still alive😊
Kurt was so beautiful. When it first cuts to him @ 0:23 … I practically gasped out loud. It catches me off guard whenever I see footage of him. I mean I listen to Nirvana often and love their music. Kurt’s voice is something that has become very familiar to me but I don’t see his face often. It’s easy to forget that he was basically the definition of “classically handsome” because his music so perfectly embodies what it means to feel ugly/outcasted/downtrodden. It’s a good reminder that what you see on the outside doesn’t always reflect how people feel inside. Just because someone is beautiful doesn’t mean they are happy. We miss you Kurt. Thanks for sharing your genius with all of us… if only for a little while.
Thank you Mike and Mike's Music Archive if there's more than one of you. I'm trully privileged to have seen and heard this trully awesome video!!! FATHER in Heaven bless you!!! And obviously of course Thank you Nirvana!!! YOU STILL ARE AND ARE STILL ROCKIN'!!!
Just wow! Thank you for uploading this, I made a post like a week ago about the highest resolution footage of Nirvana and this definitely beats all of them. You've made a lot of people happy with this video, thank you. -Alex
Thankyou to whoever found this God bless you 🙏. Because every piece of nirvana and kurt i see brings me a little closer to a generation just before mine.
Kurt and Chad are so eloquent here! It would have been nice to be alive during that time to see them play; + alice in chains, mother love bone, and the blackouts.
Jimmy Saboter mm yeah probably. Though Kurt writing about taking heroin in 87, i think is part of the many hyperbolic stories that Cobain Made, and he was great at that. Everyone around him that time said that wasnt a way that he did heroin in Aberdeen. Like Novoselic said that when he finally tried it he called by the phone to tell him, and that was In mid or late 1990. In 1990 Kurt wasn´t an addict. Like he said when he "get asociated with the smack scene un seattle (living in Olympia)". The same thing with trying it for sort of.medical reasons, cause the stomach, whatever. That was the excuse that Made up later and Nirvanas managment went for it when the rumours about his heroin use started in early 1992. I do think that Courtney fucked him up in a many ways, and she was a junkie. The heroin binge increase in Cobain with her, and that was his downfall.
Amen, if she didnt order to kill him she pushed him to kill himself, eitherway courtneys fault, if she loved her husband then why did she diss him on his last days
@Tomas i saw in another video named "The last 48 Hours of Kurt Cobain", one guy talking and he said that Courtney told him that "She had quit heroin 6 months before she met Kurt, and she had to start Heroin again cause 'being with Kurt meant i had to do Heroin.'...She loved him that much". Don't you smell bullshit in that statement? i smell complete bullshit and only excuses to start shooting dope. Fuck i hate junkies
777certain it’s happening now, thanks to this...... (by the way I am a hardcore 53 year old Nirvana fan, and this is amazing...) ruclips.net/video/f7eaGcIyhPU/видео.html
The quality is crystal clear.
yep, first generation
I thought the same thing
Probably shot with (then) brand new school equipment.
Might be film, not tape.
Fantastic and Unbelievable Archive. The interview guy looks as a geeky youtuber in our days.
I like Chad. He never even seemed bitter about pretty much being kicked out of the band
Because I think he would admit that they found a much better drummer.
Good riddance
sprdvx they found one of the best of all time for heavy music...but chad was a very very good drummer. Listen to him on negative creep...hes solid.
Charizarzar how did they actually kick him out? Did kurt tell him personally? I couldn’t imagine telling my friend i want you out of this band I found someone better ... must be so hard ... does anyone know if they ever stayed in touch till his death?
He and Chris were easily the most humble of the bunch. Just a couple of hippies.
You heard it here from a 23 year old Kurt Cobain "keep on practicing, never give up". The secret to success.
Kurt preaching about not giving up. lol.
He was still 22.
Lol. Kurt was the concept of antithesis.
RIP KC
I mean, he may of gave up on life but he already achieved his goal so it still counts
As R Moocher already said 10 months ago, he was still 22 years old for another month and a half.
Kurt was so well spoken, eloquent even. You could tell there was a lot going on in his head, he really thought about things before he said them. Krist is brilliant fun as always!
ClarkyGuitar Why is no one talking about how cool and smooth chad seems....
GN'R FTW
100% agree. First thing I thought when I heard him start talking here is "eloquent".
On an unrelated note though, it's a bit odd to see him really trying to answer questions. Later years after Nevermind, Kurt generally seems a bit recluded from many interviews (but always as intelligent and eloquent as ever).
And he wasn't on heroin yet, he started with heroin at the end of this year
Oh yeah Kurt was very articulate. He was very well spoken. No doubt about it.
The video quality is INSANE. Whomever at Air Waves shot and preserved the tape - thank you!
They had good quality digital cameras back then but they were very expensive. I remember seeing an old Elliott Smith tape and thinking “What? They had that then?”, and it turns out they did
Holy smokes, my favorite youtubers! 😍
The reason for it being in good quality is because this was likely shot on 35mm film instead of a tape
Kurts voice is so calming
truth. been a fan since I was a teen 1992. About A Son is something I turn on and fall asleep to most nights.
It’s truly criminal that Chad Channing was excluded from the hall of fame.
Other TechLead Chad played on Bleach and other recordings. He even influenced some Nevermind recordings. Why not ?
Other TechLead , funny Dave Grohl has said so in interviews and even mentions at the Hall of Fame speech, with In Bloom. Do you know about the Smart Sessions prior to Nevermind ?

@Other TechLead Who shit in your cereal? They didn't have anything against Chad and he wasn't on anybody's "shitlist." They just wanted a harder hitting, more polished drummer. "You can fantasize all you want/he was on their shitlist/end of narrative/Kurt & Krist thought..." Fucking listen to yourself.

0:41 nirvana is 3 people me and 2 friends.
Ohhh boy ;_;
Yeah man, i feel my heart crack
LOL!!!!!
Poor chad
They dumped him in a letter pretty much saying he had no style and couldnt produce what kurt wanted. Great friends.
He actually said me and two fraayunds
The quality of recording although it was in 1990 something like 20 years ahead
All recordings are like this if you get them directly from the source on tape. You can get HD movies from the 1930's.
i think it's upscale. But the movies was shoot on film. Nirvana mostly was just on tv cameras not 35 or 16 mm film. Only Paramount show have true HD
That's because film (1930's before video) is HD. Video is a different story
Well it's 1990 not 1890. It wasn't very long a go.
Yeah, you're right. It doesn't make sense why something this old is this high quality. It's because Nirvana is fake. Never really existed. Cobain is still alive and they actually filmed this "first interview" pretty recently.
"It doesn't matter what you look like", said the good looking, charismatic guy.
I don’t think he cared or thought he was good looking. Maybe his face was, but he was incredibly skinny and pretty short.
Google says he was 5' 9". If accurate, that's not "extremely short", it's about the average of American men.
He can't help genetics. It's not like he tried to be good looking and stylish...like everyone today does.
it doesn't matter what you look like (if your music is great). Adele ain't no supermodel, but her voice captured the world. Mac DeMarco is one ugly bastard, but his music is deeply beautiful
There's even room in the mainstream for Post Malone
-S- Kint -S- having nice facial features it’s what most ppl call beautiful. He was a very good looking guy, and he wasn’t short, he was average...not tall not short
Kurt was at his most optimistic at this point. Great to see before he became engulfed with fame and all the problems that he had after.

BRO YOU LIKE NIRVANA-
Kurt is in early 20s but speaks and thinks like someone with 50 years of life experience behind him.
Maybe it was meant to be that he had to speak a lot of wise words before he passed on
An Old Soul
AndyNyle That is the thing when you read books
He had to fit a lot into his short 27 years on this earth!
I think thats what trauma does to you. This poor soul lived through so much fucked up stuff between the ages of 10 an 23, some people dont even get that amount in their full 80 years.
Kurt's speaking voice is so soothing its almost like ASMR. Crazy that this same voice can also make something like Endless, Nameless or Tourettes.

I would like to give as many thumbs up for chad as I can. He's real
Finally an actual vintage recording that’s in high definition and no break in the sound.
The 89-90 Nirvana is truly my favorite
89-94 is truly my favorite!
87-94 js truly my favorite!
87-88 Nirvana was BY FAR the best period. They shredded then. I wish they had kept shredding.
It's cool seeing Kurt seem happy and giving honest, straightforward answers. Something you never saw later on.
"It doesn't matter what you look like or anything, it doesn't matter what your product looks like, it's what it sounds like".
Right now, it's quite the opposite.
It was quite the opposite back in 1990 too. Before Nirvana hit big the charts were dominated by hair metal groups and boy bands. We've come full circle.
That is why men saying Aye are on my shitlist
It’s so clear and beautiful. Wish MTV would release all their NIRVANA footage in its original format. 😓
Hear, hear! I hate how young people today think our TVs back then were blurry because of the bad quality videos that get frequently uploaded -- no doubt taken from decades-old VHS tapes! One idiot even said, "I'm glad I live now, because I wouldn't want to have to squint to watch a show or movie." Yeah, no, we had clear images. You just couldn't see people's pores, like on HDTV.
Kurt is very intelligent and so well spoken What a good
soul 🎆
Omg Kurt was so enthusiastic about what he was doing at the beginning. It's like night and day in perspective to what you see the vibe he gave off during Inutero and even late Nevermind. Holy shit. He even said 'grunge alternative'. That shit blows my mind.
The last quote from kurt struck me. "Doesnt matter what your product looks like, its what it sounds like". Kurt really helped define the grunge visual aesthetic which is massively influential today even in hiphop/trap fashion. Seems today that marketing and the visual and surrounding antics of new artists matter just as much if not more than the music. Maybe the lesson learned is to not be so clouded by the surrounding marketing of artists today and concentrate of having a good musical product.
Thank you kurt for being an inspiration and being the fuel to the sound ive created, the only human that ive been able to relate to was taken just as i was conceived. A legend died and a legacy left behind.
I understand the influence. Nirvana influence some of the stuff I wrote. Them, kings of Leon and R.E.M really gave me a layout on how to make music. Solid fucking riffs. Melodic but can stay fast paced and slow down if they want. Tight drummer and a fat chunky bass! ALOT artist use the same formula but it's something about those bands I listed that give me an artistic connection with that inspires me to write music using a formula like theirs.
Sad it was never aired but glad i caught it here, thanx Mike
Chad talks!
I like him
This footage is almost HD quality!! Kurt looks in good shape here too.
Kurt's voice is edible
Uuum is that an insult or a compliment? Cause, it's weird either way unless you would explain to me what you mean by that lmao
Yummy
kaya milchin well said and I agree wholeheartedly
@@izzaghassani7187 it's obviously a compliment. it's not weird, it's just an interesting concept that not many people can understand :)
@@danejurus69 thank you for understanding :)
Krist is so hilarious "a seaweed band or something" lmfao!! Kurt seemed like a real mellow, thoughtful guy. And he gave the best advice not just for musicians, but life in general. It may be cliché, but it's true. Short but very well done interview
This has got to be 1 of the most awesome interviews I've ever seen!
Love the interviewers hair and the interview as a whole. They're all down to Earth.
YES, it finally released!
This was a great and interesting interview! Honest opinions from all three original members. I moved from Eugene, Oregon to Seattle in 87-94 street skateboarder, into punk, the Music scene was there and was just taking off. So many great bands! I feel very fortunate to have been a part of that experience.
This is one of the only videos I’ve seen with Nirvana in good quality.
one of the few interviews that had Kurt opening up a bit at the end. looking over RUclips, he’s often commenting on a show, Seattle in general or his opinion on other headline bands at the time. The opportunity for him to give advice or a genuine comment and on available footage are far between.
this was 30 years go. amazing!
Whoa, HD footage of Nirvana from Jan. 6, 1990??! Thanks to whoever was in charge of filming this and preserving this rare piece of rock history!
HD was even around in 1989-90?
Just over 2 years later (1/11/1992) they were playing SNL.
That's sad tbh
Kurt has such an unique voice
Before be famous they were a grunge band from Seattle, later they were like an anti music industry band from Aberdeen😂😂😂
tchaco lynma lol labels
The least favorite human
That's exactly it man. Nirvana just lost some street credit.
Haha I noticed that too
Krist looks like Neville from harry potter
wha-
Krist ! So okay
yeah i think you should say that the other way around please don't put 2000s entertainment over late 80s-early 90s originality, just learn to not do that please.
*Neville looks like Krist
Hamagoloeoz the beard though 💀
This is what recordings actually looked like back then, it's just taken 20 years for people to learn to encode to digital without shitting the quality
I love Kurts voice and how he talks, it's intoxicating, LOL!!! ❤❤
Kurt seemed to be really well in that vid. So so sad to realize that it all went south. Rest in peace, Kurt!
Great interview! Chad seemed very aimable! Kurt is always waxing philosophic and sounds très artistic. My understand is that he cultured his look as much as his sound, but perhaps appearing not to give attention to one's look was the look!
This interview is priceless - the grunge explosion was ready to happen
Dude I’ve always loved krist no matter the case he always had a smile on his face. Dude seriously makes me happy.
Awesome to see the band in 4K :) ;)
It'd be nice but unless there's footage shot on actual film, it's not going to be 4k
It’s crazy that not even five years after this interview was recorded, they would become the biggest band on the planet and then end tragically, marking their place in music history forever.
Chad looks like an inmate.
Great questions from the interviewer
this is so far my favorite nirvana interview because:
-the tv station did a great job
-this is my favorite nirvana line up with chad , bleach forever❤️
-the film quality looks as new as today 4/20/2018 and makes me think kurt still alive😊
real station r u a fan of Nirvana ?😍
Chad over Dave no way!!
Me too for Chad in there
Any idea where we can find the whole interview? Sure it was longer than 4 minutes.
I like how organized the subtitles are, there's what they're saying, each member is titled in a formal font and their role
Omg the quality of this though! I feel like I'm sat right next them while they are talking, wow, absolutely fantastic X X
You werent born yet
@@matteomaddelenaita8172 I was!! But I was very young. Anyway I'm talking about the quality of the footage! Not if I was around at that time or not 🙄
@@melissawright1979 by the way, you are hella beautiful and sexy :-)
@@matteomaddelenaita8172 🤦
@@matteomaddelenaita8172 Haha thank you x
Kurt was deadly wise : Just keep practicing and never give up no matter how frustrating you feel like from one beginning. I miss ya Kurt !
Kurt was so beautiful. When it first cuts to him @ 0:23 … I practically gasped out loud. It catches me off guard whenever I see footage of him. I mean I listen to Nirvana often and love their music. Kurt’s voice is something that has become very familiar to me but I don’t see his face often. It’s easy to forget that he was basically the definition of “classically handsome” because his music so perfectly embodies what it means to feel ugly/outcasted/downtrodden. It’s a good reminder that what you see on the outside doesn’t always reflect how people feel inside. Just because someone is beautiful doesn’t mean they are happy. We miss you Kurt. Thanks for sharing your genius with all of us… if only for a little while.
Strange to see Kurt looking almost happy, he seems more human in this interview. And that advice at the end is worth gold.
Dave is great! But I do miss Chad.
KidGrunge _Why did Chad get the boot?
Maye McDonald
Dave Grohl had more of that "pop sound" that Nirvana actually needed. (For mainstream purposes) Chad was more punk influence, I'd say.
KidGrunge _ oh I see. Thanks.
Maye McDonald :)
Man, check out Chad’s band Before Cars. Pure gold.
Never seen before Nirvana interview! It pleases me a lot. Thank you very much for posting! Too bad we couldn't see Kurt's beautiful blue eyes...
keep practicing. Don't give up. Just don't give up.
god i could listen to kurt talk about random stuff forever, his voice is so soothing
this quality holy cannoli 💕♥️💖💖💝💕
Watching all these Nirvana clips idk why but brings peace to me
Great video. Kurt looks lovely
Thank you Mike and Mike's Music Archive if there's more than one of you. I'm trully privileged to have seen and heard this trully awesome video!!! FATHER in Heaven bless you!!!
And obviously of course Thank you Nirvana!!!
YOU STILL ARE AND ARE STILL ROCKIN'!!!
Just wow! Thank you for uploading this, I made a post like a week ago about the highest resolution footage of Nirvana and this definitely beats all of them. You've made a lot of people happy with this video, thank you.
-Alex
Live at the paramount is probably the highest res I’ve ever seen them. That show made it seem like a movie.
Thankyou to whoever found this God bless you 🙏. Because every piece of nirvana and kurt i see brings me a little closer to a generation just before mine.
kurts deep voice was awesome chad sounded like an elf.
He still does. He is cool. He supported Kurt and Krist.😀
Kurts voice wasn’t deep
@@gangweedpilled4977 But it was beautiful.
Good interview. You could see how fresh everyone looked there before the big time. Early days of starting out when your full of energy and ideas.
Goodness, this looks like something that was recorded this week.
Kurt and Chad are so eloquent here! It would have been nice to be alive during that time to see them play; + alice in chains, mother love bone, and the blackouts.
Wow, Dave really changed a lot from 1990 to 1991.
Very kind interview
Kurt was an entirely different person before Courtney. If he had only avoided her he'd still be with us making music.
And avoid heroin also.
He started heroin early 1987. This fucked him. But Courtney fucked him much worse. Poor lad.
Jimmy Saboter mm yeah probably. Though Kurt writing about taking heroin in 87, i think is part of the many hyperbolic stories that Cobain Made, and he was great at that. Everyone around him that time said that wasnt a way that he did heroin in Aberdeen. Like Novoselic said that when he finally tried it he called by the phone to tell him, and that was In mid or late 1990. In 1990 Kurt wasn´t an addict. Like he said when he "get asociated with the smack scene un seattle (living in Olympia)". The same thing with trying it for sort of.medical reasons, cause the stomach, whatever. That was the excuse that Made up later and Nirvanas managment went for it when the rumours about his heroin use started in early 1992. I do think that Courtney fucked him up in a many ways, and she was a junkie. The heroin binge increase in Cobain with her, and that was his downfall.
Amen, if she didnt order to kill him she pushed him to kill himself, eitherway courtneys fault, if she loved her husband then why did she diss him on his last days
@Tomas i saw in another video named "The last 48 Hours of Kurt Cobain", one guy talking and he said that Courtney told him that "She had quit heroin 6 months before she met Kurt, and she had to start Heroin again cause 'being with Kurt meant i had to do Heroin.'...She loved him that much".
Don't you smell bullshit in that statement? i smell complete bullshit and only excuses to start shooting dope.
Fuck i hate junkies
I'm 51 and this is the best band of my generation...
Kurt seems so much more happy before all the fame
and before Courtney Love
its sad nirvana is so underrated, maybe they will get more popular in future years.
777certain it’s happening now, thanks to this...... (by the way I am a hardcore 53 year old Nirvana fan, and this is amazing...)
