I was hoping it would be a chapter covering each song on the album but it was not written that way at all. Gaar discusses the creation of some of the songs and than the recording of the songs. She interviews the producers; record executives; members of Nirvana and gathers quotes by Kurt Cobain from interviews done at the time. There is a chapter that covers the creation of the art work that is interesting.Over all I dont really think I got a better understanding of the Nirvana or their recording process from this book.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. One of the best books in this seriesBy Rich L.A great read. The author avoids over-analysis of Kurts lyrics; which has become so prevalent in the wake of his death. Instead; she focuses on the details of the songs-namely; when they were written (or a best approximation) and first recorded; the multiple recording sessions where these songs were first recorded before the "In Utero" recordings; and to-the-point analysis of the "In Utero" sessions. Ive read a lot about the recording of this album but was very impressed with her practical day-to-day recounting of the sessions. The book is as bare-bones as the album itself; and makes for a great read. If youre looking for an impassioned interpretation of Kurts songs; look elsewhere; but if you want a nuts-and-bolts dissection of this album; pick this book up.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Organized collection of Information.By J. LittleGreat Read; there are lots of tidbits that have come out over the years organized for you to make sense out of. There are several previously points that are clarified as the author did a thorough job researching the ambiguous nuggets of information and rumors floating about. She interviewed those in the know close to the band; members of the band; as well as renowned experts in the field of live recordings and concerts. Is everything in this book a revelation? No; but with Nirvana existence 12 years in the past and with all session and demo information that weve learned about over the years; the constant expectation of something groundbreaking and new is probably going to leave you disappointed more often than not. There is some new info; yes. Did I buy it for that? No; not at all. Personally; I like hearing information that weve known presented in a nice; organized; and well written fashion as much as (if not more than) new information. The new stuff is just icing on the cake. Great job on the book; Gillian. I hope that you continue to share Nirvana with us in all the various ways you have already.
