GREAT PHOTO...I believe that is Tommy kneeling down. This is actually an interesting discussion as well. Much better than talking about whether or not Bumblefoot is happy.

Oh, for God's sake, I knew I forgot one of my faves. Paul Westerberg is EASILY the equal of Cobain and has a much bigger body of work. Westerberg may the best singer/songwriter in the US since he came on the scene in 1981. Now, Westerberg/The Replacements are not nearly as popular as Cobain/Nirvana. But, they are just as influential and just as critically acclaimed. Westerberg trumps Stipe as well...in my opinion....mainly because he wrote the guitar parts and lyrics..not just lyrics.

Weezer isn't better than Nirvana. Come on. You can make a solid argument for REM/Stipe though.

Just to name one, Machine Gun is better than anything Cobain ever wrote. A perfect song for the Vietnam era accompanied by a complete masterpiece of an instrumental.... Maybe the greatest guitar virtuoso display of all time. I consider the instrumental part of the songwriting process....especially when the guy sings and writes the lyrics and music like Jimi and Kurt. Hendrix has a ton of original songs that are drop dead classics...just skim through his 3 classic studio albums.

He's going back with a whole bunch of new songs....:haha:
