If it was up to me, I’d get more oil tanker drivers drunk. I don’t value music much. I like the Beatles
Kurt Cobain
While researching his excellent documentary, Montage of Heck, Brett Morgen unearthed a hefty amount of previously unheard Kurt Cobain material. The music, which includes demos and rarities, will be collected as a solo Cobain album of sorts entitled Montage of Heck: The Home Recordings.
One of these newly uncovered pieces is a raw, acoustic take on The Beatles’ “And I Love Her”. Morgen discovered it on a random tape and included it in his film. The coversurfaced online back in April, but was taken down shortly after.

Dave Grohl: The Beatles Were A ‘Huge Influence’ On Kurt Cobain
“When I was young, that’s how I learned how to play music — I had a guitar and a Beatles songbook,” Dave told Access Hollywood at the 2012 MusiCares Person of the Year Tribute to Paul McCartney in Los Angeles on Friday. “I would listen to the records and play along. Of course, it didn’t sound like The Beatles, but it got me to understand song structure and melody and harmony and arrangement.
“So, I never had a teacher — I just had these Beatles records,” he added.
The Foo Fighters frontman also revealed the British band’s influence continued from his childhood into his years with Nirvana alongside the late Kurt Cobain.
“Even in Nirvana — the Beatles [were] such a huge influence,” he said. “Kurt loved The Beatles because it was just so simple.
“Well, it seemed simple… they sound easy to play, but you know what? They’re [expletive] hard!” he added.
