NIRVANA – THE STORIES BEHIND EVERY SONG

Critical, in-depth examination of Nirvana’s entire output.
There have been precious few truly revolutionary events in rock history: Elvis Presley’s first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show… the release of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band and the unforeseen, meteoric ascent of a band from Seattle: Nirvana. Unflaggingly faithful to its punk rock roots, Nirvana was the catalyst behind a sea of change the likes of which the music world had not seen since The Beatles spearheaded the British Invasion more than a quarter of a century before.
Crisafulli tells the story behind every track on the band’s albums. Why did Cobain feel moved to write ‘Polly’? What is Teen Spirit? Who is Floyd the Barber? All is revealed in this book, which discusses and examines all of the band’s output.
Contents:
The book follows Nirvana from its earliest beginnings to rock superstardom, pinpointing the genesis of each of the band’s original songs, and exploring the sources from which they chose the cover songs that punctuated their records. It is the story of the most important band in what will surely stand as one of the most important times in the history of rock ‘n’ roll.
