Report: Cobain Working on Solo Album Before Suicide

(AFP) Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain was working on a solo album when he committed suicide in 1994, a former guitarist for the band of Cobain’s widow said in an interview with music TV channel Fuse.

Erlandson said Cobain was writing and producing songs that transcended his previous work.

Erlandson spoke with Fuse last week after publishing a book about his relationship with Cobain, entitled “Letters to Kurt.”

An album of Cobain’s rough demo recordings could still be released, he said.

Cobain committed suicide at the age of 27, near the height of his grunge-rock band’s success.
