Just a little something I've been working on.

In 1989, Kurt Cobain wrote and recorded the song 'About a Girl' for Nirvana's album 'Bleach'.

Three years earlier, a band from the far side of the country in New Jersey called The Smithereens recorded a song called 'Blood and Roses' for their album 'Especially for You'.

Kurt Cobain had been listening to the Beatles album 'Meet the Beatles' while writing 'Bleach'. The Smithereens covered Meet the Beatles in it's entirety in 2007 with the album 'Meet the Smithereens'.

Cobain mentioned in his journals that The Smithereens album 'Especially for You' was one of his favorite albums. So in honor of what I think Kurt might've liked to have done before his passing, I give you 'About a Girl's Blood and Roses' by The Smithereens feat. Kurt Cobain.
