First of three tributes to the greats from Seattle that have passed on. Kurt Cobain and his band Nirvana marked the beginning of a great period in music growing up. To the day I can't listen to one of their albums without being reminded of what it was like to grow up in the 90's.

Second of three tributes to the Seattle greats. This one featuring Layne Staley from Alice In Chains. Its difficult to decide which song personifies their sound. One can make an argument for either Man in a Box or Would. Either way, a talent gone far too soon.

Final piece in the trifecta. Chris Cornell outlasted the other two having had a long and successful career. However, even having had a longer time with him doesn't diminish how much of a loss this was to the music world. Every time I think of his passing, the song Say Hello to Heaven comes to mind.
