Day 471: Come as you are, Nirvana

Time for another Nirvana hit. I think the most distinctive thing about this song is the base riff. Nirvana always remind me of my early days in Manchester all the way back in the ’90s. In those days I was leading the pre-teenager group at my local church called Pathfinders. Once a year we would take them away and I distinctly remember on one houseparty all the young boys were into Nirvana as their album Never Mind had been released a couple of years previously.
