Free Music Notes for Kurt Cobain: About a Son
Free Music Review: about the man
Hit: 5 Stars
This is the review of the film that I intend to buy when it comes out. Music was good, too, I have not heard actual CD because I purchased it as a gift.
The film was beautifully done; if you have crash on Kurt it will break your heart.
The director was at the screening I went and there was Q & A session. I had to ask who gave him OK to make this film since Kurt is, well, gone.
He said all the tapes with Kurt's voice in it is HIS. He did not need any permission from anyone, I do not know if that is really so, I mean then why, now? After all these years hording hours and hours of Kurt's raw voice. He said it was just by chance that happened now.
Courtney was supportive about it and it does shows in the film the director never intended to exploit anybody, so that was nice, naturally there is no Nirvana song in the sound track but all the songs that Kurt mentions and influenced him in the said stages of his life. There is very few still image of him in the very very end of the film only.
The mill was actually where Kurt's dad worked, the school he went, the room he lived in. It is pure homage about the man and where he came from.
Kurt Cobain: About a Son Poster
This film is an intimate and moving portrait of Kurt Cobain, told entirely in his own voice. Based on more than 25 hours of never before heard interviews conducted by noted journalist Michael Azerrad for his book "Come As You Are: The Story Of Nirvana". The soundtrack does not contain Kurt or Nirvana's music. Says Azerrad, "It's like a mixtape you'd give to a friend or lover to share ideas, not just about music but about your whole point of view. It's to try to show them what you're all about. So if watching 'About A Son' is like seeing the world through Kurt's eyes, then listening to this music is like hearing it through his ears." Artists include Arlo Guthrie, Melvins, Bad Brains, CCR, Half Japanese, The Vaselines, Butthole Surfers, Scratch Acid, Mudhoney, Iggy Pop, Lead Belly, REM, David Bowie, Mark Lanegan, and Benjamin Gibbard.Alternative Rock Music CDs
