Listen to rare Nirvana interviews recorded in 1990
If the In Utero reissue hasn’t kept your Nirvana cravings satisfied then look no further for your next dose; British journalist James Sherry has revealed rare interview recordings with the grunge threesome from back in 1990.
The three interviews, originally for Metal Hammer and which were released on CD in 2004 but the files have never appeared online until now, include insight into the band’s success and persona.
Sherry recalls his first meeting with Cobain and co:
“I walked up the road to meet them and vividly remember Krist Novoselic’s lanky frame lumbering down the road towards me with Kurt and Dave shuffling behind him,” He continues, “Once we got back to the office and I had made the band a round of tea, we settled down to talk – well at least Krist and Dave did. Kurt, however, sat on the end of the sofa rolling an un-lit cigarette I had given him between his fingers as he stared straight ahead.”
