Revisiting 1991
Though it seems like just yesterday for many, it's been 25 years since 1991. Along with 1964, '67 and '76, 1991 was a landmark year for music. You can hear its influence everywhere from neo-grunge band Bully to Compton rapper Kendrick Lamar. While Bryan Adams and Garth Brooks topped the charts, there are even more musicians that made groundbreaking strides back in '91. For Jim and Greg, 1991 was all about:
- Nirvana and the birth of grunge
- My Bloody Valentine and the growth of shoegaze
- Lollapalooza and the rise of the Alternative Nation
- N.W.A. and the reign of gangsta rap
- Massive Attack and the birth of trip-hop
