Show me where your other examples changed the landscape of music... then or ever.

Some people here just argue so they can look smart in their own minds. Show me the Geffen Records album genius.

How long have you been in this business that you don't know that Geffen broke Nirvana? JFC Dude, half the A&R people in this town were fired after Nirvana blew up because they had all heard Bleach and dismissed it as crap! Seriously, you're out of your element. If you'd like me to embarrass you, fine. That wasn't my original intention. |

The genre was dead almost as quickly as it began. Alanis Morrisette had a bigger and longer lasting impact on the music scene than any of the Seattle bands. Soundgarden disbanded in 1997 after a lackluster release, Pearl Jam's appeal faded dramatically after Vs. and Nirvana died when Kurt died. "Grunge" is nothing more than a footnote in Rock & Roll history. You of ALL people should know that. The band that benefited the most from the "Alt/Grunge" era was Smashing Pumpkins and even they couldn't sustain it. |

But most importantly, Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss. Why and who you ask? A&M Records. I'll leave it up to you who I'm referring to and how it changed the music business forever. |

Jerry Moss is right up there with the Beatles and Elvis though. Seriously you and a few others should get a point now and then.

I never claimed to know everything. If you can find where I did please enlighten all of us. I program 2 stations. One is in mid Illinois. The other is in Chicago. I do it from hicktown though so feel free to make your idiot assumptions.
