The Death of Nirvana's Kurt Cobain Changed The Music Biz

This week Nate is joined by Author, Adam Caress, to discuss his book, “The Day Alternative Music Died: the Struggle between Art and Money for the Soul of Rock”. In this episode, Adam makes the case that the death of Kurt Cobain led to an instant revision of music history, and attempts to remind us of what the actual state of “alternative”* music was in the halcyon days of the early 1990s before “grunge”* was codified as a simple to copy formula that was relentlessly promoted by the music industry.
