Yeah, Kurt wasn't a great guitar player. Musically, Nirvana was barely average.

Anyways, TMWSTW is probably my favorite Nirvana song, and Unplugged is easily my favorite Nirvana album. There's just something about this song that makes it so badass.

Not true. Kurt was musically average, but Novaselic and Grohl were far above average.

well it's true that Kurt wasn't much of a guitar player, but then again that's not what he was known for, "guitar wise" he was average, but the man was a poet, even though this was not his song, (great song by Bowie, by the way). Kurt was known as a lyricist, not as a guitarist.

Grohl is an exceptional musician. I prefer him on a guitar over the drums, but he IS damn good. As for Nirvana in general, I think they're good for bass and lyrics. Plus, that man had a sexy voice.
