Nope, Heart Shaped Box was a Cobain original.
Anyone? Anyone? Something d-o-o economics...
EDIT - Voodoo economics...
I'm two hours early, but I don't expect to be around this afternoon. So in the interests of keeping things moving, let's put this one to bed and move on.
I'm actually surprised that nobody knew that the only non-Cobain Nirvana song officially released was Marigold. It was written by Dave Grohl, who also performed guitar and vocals on the track. It was released as a b-side to Heart Shaped Box and has since been incorporated into the Foo Fighters catalogue.
Okay, 'nother random direction. This one is Beatles trivia, so it'll probably be nailed three minutes after I hit save, but whatever.
I think in a thread like this one we can take it as granted that we all know Paul McCartney was not the original bassist of the Beatles. When the man who held the position first left, Paul moved over to bass from rhythm guitar, and when selecting a bass to play with the band chose a Hoffner. What about that particular bass caused Paul to decide on it?
