A 22 year-old Kurt Cobain, finishing up his first album and already thinking about his second, is taking notes...
I can't find any references suggesting Cobain liked or had even heard Hugo Largo. But given his enthusiasm for adjacent bands including REM and the Raincoats, it would make sense

A real shame that the Hugo Largo albums are out of print and not on streaming services. They deserve to be remembered.
ReplyDeleteThere is a pretty good 1987 show on YouTube, recorded in Hoboken NJ. The cover of Wanted Dead or Alive is fun.
