no offense taken area.... I was merely posting my opinion and there are many who disagree with it... such is the way of life..... if others like his music more power to them...
I just think that he was nothing special...... certainly he did not bring anything new into the music arena that wasn't already there.... Hendrix, Bowie, Waters, Danzig, Murphy..
now these people were innovators and changed the whole scene as was known for their times.... for those that have not a clue as to who I mean here are first names.... Jimi, David, Roger, Glenn, and Peter..... oh yeah lest I forget
The Damned(first punk band on vinyl) and Janis Joplin( first female rock vocalist) and Black Sabbath(first metal band) but grunge admit it or not was nothing but rehashed rock with metal power chords....... chords that a thirteen year old barely learning can play in thier sleep.... ooopps
I forgot The Legendary Pink Dots(first industrial band in 1979) followed by the infamous Skinny Puppy..... I have nothing against Nirvana but they certainly were not "NEW" nor in any way breaking any ground that had not been dug up long before their time....
