Viděno punkem.
Alba focená na podlaze, blbé světlo. Sorry, píšu nejraději za úsvitu.
Nirvána.
Chlapečka v bazénu viděl každý, kontrast - nářez a ticho a řev a ticho před jekotem - z alba Nevermind zná celá planeta.
Ale první vinyl Cobaina a spol. Bleach z roku 1989 slyšel málokdo.
Nahrávání stálo na dluh 600 dolarů, údajně Kurt je nikdy nevrátil.
Moje urputná vůle prosadit Bleach (jasně děcka, pouze čisté jehly) na večírcích byla marná. Tvl vypni to, to se nedá poslouchat!
Dá. A pozor, to ještě v kapele nehrál zuřivý Dave Grohl stylem ateďtyhrncerozmlátím.
Kasovní trhák pro nejširší publikum MTV Unplugged otevírá song About a girl právě z Bleach.
Kurt v babičkovském kardiganu byl geniální písničkář. Uměl propojit popovou chytlavost s punkovou neurvalostí a heavy soundem. Se španělkou by vyprodal Strahov i Portu.
Dával si pozor na jehly.
Ale na tu brokovnici se měl vykašlat.
Tak dávno tomu, a stejně mi to rve srdce.
Poslechněte si sakra aspoň jednou Bleach, Kurtovi pro radost.
The sobotní End.

Jeff “Dude” Bridges dostal kdysi dávno od manželky unikátní foťák Widelux, který od té doby nosil na každé natáčení.
Teď spoluvyvíjí pod firmou Silverbridges nástupce Widelux.X.
Video, ve kterém představuje první dva kusy, je nejlepší unboxing video za dlouhou dobu.
Čistá radost 🫠📸

Sovovy mlýny - Museum Kampa 🧵👇

On this day, July 13, 1977, 🇬🇧 Chris Bonington and Doug Scott stood atop Baintha Brakk—The Ogre (7,285 m)—for the first time ever.
No high-altitude porters. No fixed camps. No siege tactics. Just pure alpine style, six men deep in the Karakoram, chasing a bold dream on the most technical unclimbed summit on Earth.
🗻 First ascent of The Ogre.
The team split into two. Bonington, Estcourt, Rowland, and Anthoine aimed left; Scott and Braithwaite tried a direct prow. But rockfall struck. Tut was injured. Estcourt fell ill. Doug shifted to Bonington’s line.
Nine days on the mountain. Thin air. Storms. Endless granite. On July 13, Bonington and Scott summited as the sun sank behind K2 and Nanga Parbat.
Then it all went wrong.
Just below the top, Doug slipped on ice and shattered both legs. Bonington dragged him to a ledge, pressed Doug’s bare feet to his own body to stave off frostbite, and waited through a night that didn’t forgive.
The descent began—with Doug crawling, Bonington lowering him down anchor by anchor. Storms hit. Visibility dropped. Rations gone.
Mo Anthoine and Clive Rowland climbed back up to meet them. They sheltered in a snow cave for two more days. Bonington had broken ribs. A swollen wrist. Doug was freezing and in agony.
They helped Doug crawl down for days. Found Base Camp deserted. No supplies.
Mo ran ahead. Nick Estcourt returned with 12 men. Together, they dragged Doug down moraine, across glacier, and over broken trails.
Bonington stumbled behind, coughing blood, starving.
Doug was carried across the Karakoram. Eventually flown to Rawalpindi—both tibias broken below the knee.
Bonington, flown into Islamabad, was dropped on the British Embassy’s golf course—a skeleton in rags, broken and silent.
The Ogre had let them up.
But it made them earn the right to come down.
They didn’t just summit it.
They survived it.
And in the history of mountaineering, survival is style.

Nirvana's Nevermind Photo Shoot: A Defining Moment in Rock and Roll History
The Nevermind photo shoot, conducted in 1991, remains etched in the annals of rock and roll as one of the most iconic sessions of all time. This pivotal moment captured the essence of Nirvana, the renowned grunge rock band, as they embarked on their groundbreaking album, 'Nevermind.' Widely regarded as one of the greatest music albums ever created, 'Nevermind' rose to prominence not only for its remarkable sound but also for its distinctive album art, featuring a captivating image of a naked baby swimming in a pool.
Kirk Weddle, the talented photographer behind the lens, skillfully captured the band members using prop instruments, infusing the shoot with an authentic and vibrant energy. This collection of photographs resonates deeply with fans, providing a genuine glimpse into the personality of Nirvana—an energetic and fun-loving group of musicians. Notably, it reveals a side of Kurt Cobain that the media of the time often overlooked—the joyful and exuberant aspects of his character. Unfortunately, the media fixated on his struggles with heroin addiction and his relationship with Courtney Love, turning them into tabloid obsessions.
While the album art faced criticism from some quarters, with claims of child pornography due to the depiction of a naked child, it also received acclaim for its abstract and thought-provoking message. Cobain, unapologetic in his response to those offended by the cover, once remarked, "If you're offended by this, you must be a closet pedophile." This sharp retort underlined his belief in the power of artistic expression and challenged societal norms.
'Nevermind' went on to become one of the highest-selling music albums of all time, propelled by hits like "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and "Come As You Are." The album exudes a raw punk rock tone, exploring themes of isolation, individuality, struggle, and redemption throughout its tracks. Its enduring impact and resonance solidify its status as an everlasting pillar of musical excellence.
