@zarbush1 maybe that was just during patti's angry phase, i think it was more anti-american than anything else, i really don't beleive she could be anti-isreal
the only reason that would be happening waterford is not because of patti he has upstairs her on vintyl entire catalgue its because her lawyer and managher are about as fucked up as grohl when it comes to fucking w his kid.
patti does such an amazing cover of this song! she gives it a whole new life! to all the ignorant uncreative cynical tools who claim that kurt cobain was talentless and overrated, this proves how well respected he was by such brilliant artists like patti smith, jim carroll, neil young, bob dylan, the list goes on. the man was a brilliant song writer and patti smith truly breaks down just how brilliant this song really is! god i would love to see patti perform live!
deep down i wish i could spit like that, but i'm a girl and we're not supposed to do that but there are many people i would like to do that on, patti at least has the balls to do it
@MsAdesio ovaries. She has ovaries and thats as respectable as balls. Be proud of your sex and don't attribute qualities of gender (boys are strong, girls are weak-social constructs.) to your mind or body. Gender is a joke. Let boys wear eyeliner and let girls spit if they feel like it. Otherwise we are all boring carbon copies of eachother.
Everything I love about Patti is in this video. She doesn't give a fuck about age, gender, looks, etc. She's fucking going at it. God, she's fucking amazing.
I've never been a Patti Smith listener, but this is an example of a bland, uninteresting song that was rearranged and made into a good song. Very good job on Smith and her backing band.
Okay y'all. If anyone's being mean to anyone else in these comments, I'm deleting those comments. If you keep doing it, I'll straight up block you. Not to be that guy, but honestly? Fighting on YouTube? Let's grow up.
right that's a good point, she got big just when dylan was going south, this would be 75, i saw her live once that year and thought she might even take the baton, but it seemed to me that they eventually both fell flat. I think they have both accomplished a great deal in their time, their acts though for me just seemed very anacronistic by the eighties, which was a very new world in many respects, with the dawn of the information age followed the next decade with the internet, they seem outdated
she's a mid seventies anachronism at this point, the act was fresh back then as sort of an intellectual variation of joplin...but after 30 or more years there hasn't been much progress
A fair point but, who is there to compare her to today though? I think fair play to her for keeping it real, as they say. Obviously there is a sense of delusion to her but I find quite fortifying to see her continue her act in her own unique way. This is just an opinion though frend :)
Since you're obviously not from the U.S. , I'll break it down for you: "Teen Spirit" was a deodorant that was popular in the early 1990's with rich, trendy assholes.
Its interesting that this took place at Carnegie Library in Homestead, PA. Back in about 1981, she played the Leona Theater in Homestead, about 6 blocks from the Carnegie Library. Her 1981 performance was the last act ever to perform at the Leona. The marque remained announcing:
The Patti Smith Group
Saturday
It stayed that way for about 15 years, until they tore the place down to put up a Stop-n-Go.
From the UK, oh what a shame he`s overloaded the gain on the mike i think, still great though, its still possible to hear throught the distortion and its still beautifull... GO Pattie GO !!!
Kurt should have just quit the rock n roll business and became a folk singer. He hated being a rock star, i think he would have just been happy playing like this in front of small crowds. Awesome cover, patti rocks.
I wanted to hear this, but Patti converted to square waves with dropouts is not pleasant to listen to. Sorry.

I met Patti for a few minutes after this concert and she was nothing but pleasant and inspirational (and tiny). Definitely hero status.
