Description

Cobain on Cobain places the reader at the key moments of Kurt Cobain’s roller-coaster career, telling the tale of Nirvana entirely through his words and those of his bandmates. Each interview is another knot in a thread running from just after the recording of their first album, Bleach, to the band’s collapse on the European tour of 1994 and Cobain's subsequent suicide. Interviews have been chosen to provide definitive coverage of the events of those five years from as close as possible, so that the reader can see Cobain reacting to the circumstances of each tour, each new release, each public incident, all the way down to the end. Including many interviews that have never before seen print, Cobain on Cobain will long remain the definitive source for anyone searching for Kurt Cobain's version of his own story.

Praise for Cobain on Cobain: Interviews and Encounters (Musicians in Their Own Words #9)

“Nick [Soulsby] . . . demonstrates true passion for the music and a deep understanding of the musicians who create it. His words are more than just ciphers to echange for dollars, just as the music he's writing about was always more than just noise for profit."  —Kurt Danielson, lead singer, Tad 

“This fascinating collection offers you a front-row seat to Nirvana’s stunning rise and tragic fall. Before the biographies, before the revisionism, before the mythologies, Nirvana’s story is revealed by Cobain and his bandmates as it unfolds, without the benefit of hindsight. Cobain on Cobain is the closest you can get to a Kurt Cobain autobiography.” —Gillian G. Gaar, author of Entertain Us: The Rise of Nirvana and Treasures of Nirvana
