Nevermind the Crucial

The Don's selections cross time, space and genre and his Crucial Vinyl is Nevermind, released by Nirvana in 1991.

The Don's selections cross time, space and genre. Each week he blends his favourite new music with classics from the UK, USA, Jamaica, Africa and way beyond.

Don also highlights a piece of Crucial Vinyl - a cherished item from his own record collection. This week it's Nevermind, released by Nirvana in 1991.

Don says, "Nirvana's second album knocked Michael Jackson off the number one spot in 1991, selling over 30 million copies. It brought grunge to the masses and made a reluctant Kurt Cobain the voice of a generation - not bad for a record he said he wanted to sound like 'The Knack and The Bay City Rollers being molested by Black Flag and Black Sabbath!'".
