Nirvana : the recording sessions

Nirvana turned alternative rock into the mainstream, changing the face of rock forever. Cobain has been the subject of many books since his suicide, however the one aspect has been overlooked is his extraordinary, revolutionary and instinctive songwriting. This is the first book to put Nirvanas music centerstage; unashamedly ambitious, it traces the evolution of the band - and of individual songs and albums - from rudimentary jams to finished masterpieces
