Blog: L.A. RECORD

As a young kid and future music nerd growing up in the 90s, the first band I obviously became obsessed with was Nirvana; and the first album I became obsessed with was their Unplugged in New York . From that album my early music palate expanded. First, it led me to the Germs by way of Pat Smear’s guest appearance on guitar, then later, to the Vaselines by way of Nirvana’s cover of “Jesus Doesn’t Want Me for a Sunbeam.” Having prefaced with this, seeing the Vaselines perform in Los Angeles was a rare, unexpected treat.
