Guess Seattle deserves a salute

Tho its been said the grundge scene from Seattle was good bad or indifferent,Ifor one like it.Nirvana is great,but my favorites were Soundgarden and Alice in chains..what say you?

 

Truth is that GRUNGE took us real music freex out of the dark ages of rock, the bl++dy 80's (YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUK) and brought the art back into music . I dig Nirvana, Alice 'n' Chains but less Soundgarden and Mudhoney!

 

course pearl jam was good as well if i recall right,heart came from there

 

But ya gotta admit kim thayalls guitar was great and chris cornell s voice can take the plaster of the walls

 

Wasnt Jimi from Seattle? Sorry, he wasnt grundge, but then again, the originator and king of grundge wasnt from Seattle, talkin about Neil Young with Crazy Horse.

 

I believe you are correct about Jimi tho it wasnt till he hooked up with the experience in the uk that he became famous. Love neil young.decade and harvest are the two i listen to most

 

Yep, Jimi was sure a Seattle man....long before the word grunge was even known to us

 

was puddle of mud from seattle?

 

All I know is that they were grunge

 

Grunge was a serious door opener for my generation into 60's and 70's music. People I knew at the time who were heavily into hair bands and cheap ass clickety clack R&B, were all of a sudden into The Doors, The Who and Sabbath. Throw in In Utero and Dookie (not Seattle, of course) around 1994 and it was as if rock from 1966 to 1973 was totally hip again.

Then Hanson and Spice Girls came along and I knew the fun was over. Since then it's been nothing but trailer tramps and young guys from the suburbs pretending to be rural cowboys.
