    I personally think "electric" or "rock" Mary are much more interesting than the usual songwriter stuff. There are more "colors" in an electric guitar and it seems to fit well with all the colors Mary have vocally. This was great, just like I really like the Buckley cover on the Carter vintage Guitars channel. 👍

      She did amazing. I don't think Nirvana is all that hard to cover though because Kurt couldn't sing or play the guitar very well at all. I loved Nirvana growing up but as my music pallet grew I had a harder time enjoying his poor performances. Just my opinion 🤷
