Favorite Guitarist?
2005-05-16, 9:12 AM #81
-Eric Clapton is really good at playing.
-Michael Angelo Batio can play the double guitar, each guitar at the same time with his left and right hand. That's pretty awesome to me.
I also like Halen's playing and ZZ Top's.
-Can't forget about Kirk Hammet (Sp?) either.

I was always led to believe that Kurt admitted to stealing Smells Like Teen Spirit from the Pixies' song Debaser.

Reading his Journals now, I found the page where he admits to the part about Come As You Are, but actually on here( I must have read it somewhere else then) he says he took it(SLTS riff) from Godzilla by Blue Oyster Cult, and an AC/DC song which is illegible. I never really found a similarity between Debaser and SLTS, maybe because the Pixies play it so much faster I can't really tell( He talks about it in an interview with Kurt Loder I think, right?) But then again, Kurt did dislike RS to a great amount.

Actually, I believe the riff was lifted from the Pixies' U-Mass. Cobain loved the Pixies.
