Kurt Cobain admired William S. Burroughs and teamed with him on the 1993 track “The ‘Priest’ They Called Him.” The work shows Burroughs narrating a tale over Cobain’s guitar. It fulfilled his dream and is an avant-garde oddity in Nirvana’s discography.

In his teens, Kurt Cobain got arrested for spray-painting “God is gay” in Aberdeen, a conservative logging town. Shifting between homes & battling constant upheaval, he vented his angst through acts like this. That restless drive for truth & provocation would later shape Nirvana's ethos.

Hendrix didn’t just play with fire on March 31, 1967—he unleashed it. One stray spark could’ve lit the Astoria like a tinderbox, but in that wild moment, he blew open the notion of what a rock show could be, leaving everyone both awed and slightly terrified.

On March 27, 1979, Eric Clapton married Pattie Boyd in Tucson, closing a long, tangled chapter that began when Boyd was still with George Harrison. Though the union didn’t last, the songs tied to their triangle still echo through music history.

On March 25, 1969, John Lennon and Yoko Ono used their honeymoon suite for a “Bed-In for Peace.” For a week, they welcomed reporters from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the Amsterdam Hilton, gently urging an end to war. Some found it naive, others saw media genius in action.

5150 hit on March 24, 1986. It marked Van Halen’s pivot from the flashy Roth era to a sound built around Eddie’s keyboards. The band wasn’t shy about aiming for radio-friendly hooks. It was a whole new vibe that split fans but still dominated the charts.

March 14, 1972, Tapestry was closing in on a year in the Billboard charts. The ’60s tumult had given way to an inward turn & Carole King’s candid storytelling fit perfectly. While other artists belted rock anthems, she offered quieter insights that resonated just as powerfully.

March 11, 1972, Neil Young scored his first No. 1 single with “Heart of Gold.” He’d been bouncing between rock & folk, but this track hit right as listeners craved something calmer. Ironically, its huge success only made him swerve harder toward his edgier impulses.
