I'm not exactly sure how accurate this is, but here's what I've heard:
Nirvan planned to release some sort of box set. I don't know what was supposed to be on it (rarities or singles or whatever), but obviously there is a huge market for a Nirvana box set.
However, Courtney Love has some legal claim over the creative output of the band, supposedly as the inheritor of Kurt Cobain's "estate." As of now, she refuses to have the set released. I don't know why. There is now supposed to be some sort of legal battle over the legal rights over the musical property.
So, basically, there is not release because of this chick.
I admittedly know (and care) little for Nirvana, but last time I checked, she was not in the band. She wrote no songs, played no instrument.
Didn't something similar happend with Yoko and the Beatles?
What the heck is wrong with this country? Why do these women have a say? I suppose they are "representing" their dead husbands, which I think is absurd. Dead people can't be represented- they're dead!
So, Nirvana fans, here's something all of us can get together and be angry about.
