“Some of the most enduring images ever taken of the rock star. All the hallmarks of grunge and Kurt’s particular sensibility are there: his Jackie O sunglasses, the chipped paint on his fingernails, the patched jeans, and, most of all, Cobain’s iconoclastic vulnerability.” (Vogue.com)

“These 100-plus images reflect Cobain’s complexity: defiance, charisma, playfulness, and sullen anger all bound up in a shaggy persona lurking behind those goofy oval sunglasses.” (American Photo)

“A moving testament to Kurt Cobain’s life.” (Library Journal)

“It's a rare thing to see almost all of the photos taken from a photo shoot and a performance....Seeing a young and already charismatic Dave Grohl is an added plus.” (USA Today)

“Frohman's insightful portraiture transcends the nature of celebrity photography. The pictures are as humanizing as they are glorifying.” (L'Oeil de la Photographie)

“Has an interesting text by Jon Savage, whose interview wit Cobain that day is transcribed.” (The Seattle Times)
