Table for the 1 triples with object "It's unlikely anyone could have predicted the meteoric rise of Nirvana from their humble 1985 beginnings in Aberdeen, WA, a small logging town 10 miles out of Seattle. They recorded their debut album 'Bleach' (1989) on a budget of only $600, leading to a contract with DGC, where they recorded their seminal 'Nevermind' album. By the beginning of 1992, 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' had hit the Top Ten on both sides of the Atlantic and 'Nevermind' had toppled Michael Jackson's 'Dangerous' from the top of the US album chart. However, cracks started to appear at the peak of the band's success. Shortly after the release of the final Nirvana album, 'In Utero', the band's troubled frontman Kurt Cobain went through a series of heroin overdoses, and eventually committed suicide on April 4th 2004. John Peel spotted Nirvana early - the band recorded three Peel Sessions in 1989, 1990 and 1991. <BR/><blockquote>"Nirvana did a few sessions at Maida Vale. I think I did their last one, which was still relatively early in their career. Jeff Smith phoned me and said 'you've got a really hot one this week - Nirvana', and to be honest I hadn't really heard of them. The session went well, and I thought they were good. We recorded it, went to the pub for a couple of drinks, then came back to mix it. It was only when their manager, John Silva, came in to the studio and told them that they'd just gone double-platinum in America (with 'Nevermind') that I thought, 'hmm, they must be quite famous then'.<BR/>"I remember that Kurt didn't react much when his manager told him their album was number one in the States. He seemed to be more bothered about that fact that Fender had delivered six white, left-handed Stratocaster guitars to his hotel room. They must've liked the session though, because they later insisted that I do the live recording at Reading. The Foo Fighters have used me ever since, too."</blockquote><BR/>John Peel"^^xsd:string on predicate ns2:biography sorted by label
