See, Paul got to work on the SGT PEPPER's project once he heard The Beach Boys' PET SOUNDS.

So, no.

This is basic 60s rock history, so I'm done.

By the way, is there a good band that has been influenced by Nirvana? I'm really scratching my head here. One? There must be.

Got high with Jean Luc Goddard and made some experimental home movies with him, apparently. Forget where I read that.

Oh, so there goes Severian's mistaken point that the Beach Boys were influenced by the Beatles, only more so then proving my point since the Beatles unapogetically praised Pet Sounds as a major influence for Sgt Pepper.. That is why its such a radical departure from the Beatles earlier records and sound. See, the Beatles weren't some kind of monolythic musical force living isolated in a vaccuum, only to let out music and not bring it in from outside. Beatles were influenced by what other great bands were doing too..


And yet you've failed to respond to any of my other points so perhaps you're just throwing in the the towel?


Yeah, but if you ask me, Sgt Pepper is a record that sounds more like a pre-1967 Stones record, so I dare that the Beatles were responding to the mid-1960s blues explosion to which the Stones were a huge part.




Dude, taking the lyrics a bit too literal now are you? Simply put, that was a song about "jungle fever" and I'm sure a man as obsessed with derrier as you can understand intuitively. That song was trying to point out the irony of slavery, that white men had the hots for black women, and it WASN'T ABOUT RAPE. Believe it or not, just as in today, there were black women who actually had voluntary relationships with white men, shocking but true :cool:

Yes. In 1991 he did seem a very 'jovial dude'. In the months leading up to his suicide three years later, he didn't. I don't think there's anything nonsensical about that. I think most people knew something was very wrong quite a bit before he killed himself.

I just don't see it. Even in 1993 he was clearly himself, albeit terribly faded by his battle with LA Child Protection Services in losing his daughter as well as the rising price of fame and success. Those would crush ANYBODY, Children's Court is a depressing place. Yet you still saw Kurt being himself on tour in 1993/94, the same joking antics, the same sarcasm. I'm telling you, the whole mopy suicide king image is a post-suicide problem, its not the real Kurt we saw when alive. Of course things were wrong, but suicidal? I'm not quite sure suicide is ever really "predictable" considering that it is by definition perhaps the most irrational and illogical human action.

But that's it.

And both of those bands are fairly recent, so it's taken approx 20 years for a good band to be influenced by Nirvana.

Nirvana had a huge impact on the music industry at the time, i.e. altering the course of the mainstream single handed, and bringing to an end the cult of rock stars (although Tupac sort of did that too), but musically not so much influence I would say.
It would be easy to bang out a decent sized list of bands more musically influencial than Nirvana.

Mate, he was a junky who'd already tried to kill himself once that year. If those aren't warning signs then I don't know what are.

Brown Sugar

Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields,
Sold in a market down in new orleans.
Scarred old slaver know he's doin alright.
Hear him whip the women just around midnight.
Ah brown sugar how come you taste so good
(a-ha) brown sugar, just like a young girl should
A-huh.

Drums beating, cold english blood runs hot,
Lady of the house wondrin where it's gonna stop.
House boy knows that he's doin alright.
You should a heard him just around midnight.
Ah brown sugar how come you taste so good
(a-ha) brown sugar, just like a black girl should
A-huh.

I bet your mama was a tent show queen, and all her boy
Friends were sweet sixteen.
Im no schoolboy but I know what I like,
You should have heard me just around midnight.

Ah brown sugar how come you taste so good
(a-ha) brown sugar, just like a young girl should.

I said yeah, I said yeah, I said yeah, I said
Oh just like a, just like a black girl should.

I said yeah, I said yeah, I said yeah, I said
Oh just like, just like a black girl should.


Read the above lyrics. That shit is NOT about jungle fever. Fuck the Stones

Yes, I know the lyrics, but again, you've missed the forest for the trees yo! That song seemed to have totally went over your head ;)

Maybe it went under my ass ;)

hahaha
