donkeys live a long time
Some time in the fall of '91 I was staying out of the rain, waiting for my start, at the A&B Sound down from Kootenay Loop. Song was playing through their system. It was interesting, more than most things I'd heard for a while, with its tempo and volume changes, and it caught my attention. I hadn't paid much attention to rock for most of the 80s. I knew Guns n Roses had put out a new CD and thought that was them. But I didn't investigate at the time.

Later in the year John Armstrong (Buck Cherry of the Modernettes, see above, or a previous page) did a best of '91 list in the Vancouver Sun. Because of his say-so I went and bought a couple, the Pixies and Nirvana. Only could find a cassette of Nirvana. The shopkeeper muttered, "this is getting ridiculous".

So it wasn't Guns, it was Nirvana I'd heard playing Teen Spirit. The rest of the CD/cassette was equally amazing. Almost came out of my skin during Territorial Pissings back then. Still do.

I'm not sure what it is about Nirvana. I liked them prior to hitting it big with "Smells Like Teen Spirit" on MTV - Bleach played heavily (and still regard as their best) - up to their final release yet I can't bring myself to listen to them now. Cds packed away with zero interest in listening to them again. Strange.

back when oasis were writing good songs - even if the riff is just slightly similar to "this notes for you"
