With The Lights Out....

It kind of came and went, but April 4 was the 15th anniversary of the death of Kurt Cobain. As I sit here listening to the reissued Pearl Jam Ten album, I can't help but think of what Cobain's future would have been had he lived. Certainly he would have grown out of the grunge sound and look. What was already apparent was that he could write. And he had a strong voice. In other words, pick any tragic death of a young musician and slot Cobain's name in with it. The loss of their music. Future sounds we never got to hear.
