Excerpt: Kurt Donald Cobain (pronounced , ; February 20, 1967 c. April 5, 1994) was an American singer-songwriter and musician, best known as the lead singer and guitarist of the rock band Nirvana. With the lead single "Smells Like Teen Spirit" from Nirvana's second album Nevermind (1991), Nirvana entered into the mainstream, popularizing a subgenre of alternative rock called grunge. Other Seattle grunge bands such as Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden also gained wider audiences, and as a result, alternative rock became a dominant genre on radio and music television in the United States during the early-to-middle 1990s. Nirvana was considered the "flagship band of Generation X", and frontman Cobain found himself reluctantly anointed by the media as the generation's "spokesman." Cobain was uncomfortable with the attention he received, and placed his focus on the band's music, believing the band's message and artistic vision to have been misinterpreted by the public, challenging the band's audience with its third studio album In Utero (1993). During the last years of his life, Cobain struggled with heroin addiction, illness and depression, his fame and public image, as well as the professional and lifelong personal pressures surrounding himself and his wife, musician Courtney Love. On April 8, 1994, Cobain was found dead at his home in Seattle, the victim of what was officially ruled a suicide by a self-inflicted shotgun wound to the head. The circumstances of his death have sometimes become a topic of fascination, debate, and controversy. Since their debut, Nirvana, with Cobain as a songwriter, sold over 25 million albums in the Unit...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=16707 ... Read more

Excerpt: Kurt Donald Cobain (pronounced , ; February 20, 1967 - c. April 5, 1994) was an American singer-songwriter and musician, best known as the lead singer and guitarist of the grunge band Nirvana. Cobain formed Nirvana with Krist Novoselic in Aberdeen, Washington in 1985 and established it as part of the Seattle music scene, having its debut album Bleach released on the independent record label Sub Pop in 1989. After signing with major label DGC Records, the band found breakthrough success with "Smells Like Teen Spirit" from its second album Nevermind (1991). This caused Nirvana to be considered "the flagship band" of Generation X, and Cobain hailed as "the spokesman of a generation". Cobain however was often uncomfortable and frustrated, believing his message and artistic vision to have been misinterpreted by the public, with his personal issues often subject to media attention. He challenged Nirvana's audience with its final studio album In Utero (1993).

Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : James Marshall Hendrix (né Johnny Allen Hendrix le 27 novembre 1942 à Seattle, aux États-Unis, et mort le 18 septembre 1970 à Londres, en Angleterre), mieux connu sous le nom de Jimi Hendrix, est un guitariste, auteur-compositeur et chanteur américain, fondateur du célèbre groupe anglo-américain The Jimi Hendrix Experience, actif de 1966 à 1970. Il est considéré comme l'un des musiciens les plus novateurs du siècle, notamment en raison de son approche révolutionnaire de la guitare électrique et des techniques d'enregistrement en studio. Hendrix avait la particularité d'être un guitariste gaucher, mais de jouer sur une guitare de droitier, après avoir remonté ses cordes conformément à cette inversion. Improvisateur sortant des sentiers battus, il libéra son instrument de ses contraintes en utilisant les ressources nées de l'amplification et donna à la guitare électrique moderne ses lettres de noblesse. Son influence dépasse largement le cadre de la musique rock : la plupart des styles musicaux qui se développèrent dans les années 1970 reprirent certains éléments de sa musique ; Miles Davis, notamment, joua ainsi un jazz électrique très marqué par le guitariste. Seattle, ville musicale importante et lieu de naissance de Jimi Hendrix.Johnny Allen Hendrix naît le 27 novembre 1942 à Seattle, dans l'État de Washington, aux États-Unis.
