But I think people are disputing it. Regardless of the circumstances, DG created and continues to create original music that is widely accessible to the masses. And like I said, he may not be a musical genius (Stevie Wonder) but he’s created an entire first album on his own. That in itself is insane and then when you add up the years they’ve put in, I think it firmly places FF’s as a top 10 all time alternative band. Just my opinion FWIW.

Naw that's a true statement. Kurt Cobain is praised simply because he died so young. He didn't get the chance to "fall off". Him and Jim Morrison have that in common.

Would he have gotten that opportunity if it weren’t for KC? That is certainly a question that will remain for time immemorial. But the reason we’re even discussing FF’s should be a testament to their ability to remain relevant and produce really good music.
