supersoul

Every now and then, someone appears on Debaser who "studied" music and gives lessons on how it should be understood, declaring who was good and who was bad. The problem is that those deemed foolish by these experts (with their fancy degrees) are often idolized by the very musicians that the same expert praises. I have here an interview with one of the Conner brothers from 1989, and when asked the usual question about who he liked most at the time, he says (I quote verbatim) "my favorites are Nirvana, they also come from a small town on the outskirts of Seattle and have the best imaginable approach to r'n'r." We are left wondering whether to believe matteodileonard, who studied music and claims Nirvana are crap, or to trust big brother Conner (considered a great musician by the very same matteodileonard) who is instead enthralled by them. In these cases, I am reminded of Toto's response in the film "I due colonnelli" when the Nazi major boasts about having the piece of paper...
