    Foo Fighters drummer, the late, Taylor Hawkins, talking about his favourite records, at the time that he met Dave Grohl (1995).
    Full interview: • Chris Moyles Meets Foo...
    “Taylor, were you a Nirvana fan?”
    Hawkins: "Sure! Unfortunately, I never saw them play, but I remember listening to just two records: 'Nevermind' by Nirvana and 'Grace' by Jeff Buckley. Round and round, again and again. But I never dreamed of playing with Dave or Foo Fighters."

    Foo Fighters’ Taylor Hawkins: 5 Songs I Wish I Wrote: Jeff Buckley - So Real
    "I wish I could sing it like him. I love that guy’s voice. That was my “getting some business” CD back on the Alanis Morissette tour [in 1995.] I’d put that motherfu@$!&* CD in and it was happening. I like it when he whispers, “I love you, but I’m afraid to love you” in this song.
    What a fu@$!&* bummer he died. God, that guy would have made some great music had he lived. I think he was really searching for what his next move was going to be. That first record, Grace, nobody knew about it. It took so long. Now everybody is like, “Ah, I’m such a big Jeff Buckley fan.” People really started loving it after he fu@$!&* died. I think Page and Plant were on tour and they did a couple shows with him (they played a couple festival together ― Glastonbury and Gurstenfestival ― but did not join each other on stage). Those guys aren’t scared of anybody. I heard he opened up for them once and Robert Plant was like, “I’m not fucking going onstage" (not true: Jimmy Page offered Jeff an opening slot on Page and Plant's Unledded tour, but Jeff politely declined, despite being a massive Led Zeppelin fan).
    Some people aren’t meant to be here a long time, I guess. It was weird because he was a continuum of his dad, but dare I say it, better. There’s people that would be really upset with me for saying that, like Tim Buckley fans. I’ve listened to him and can’t get into it like Jeff Buckley. That Grace record is just a masterpiece. That’s one of the 10 best records ever, up there with OK Computer and Nevermind and Ritual de lo Habitual. That’s one of the 10 greatest records of the 1990s."
    ― From Rolling Stone, Foo Fighters’ Taylor Hawkins: 5 Songs I Wish I Wrote | March 17th, 2017: www.rollingstone.com/music/mu...
    "Kurt Cobain was so funny, I miss him a lot. I never met him, I was only touched from far away by the Nirvana tornado and yet I admired him. Because we had in common a passion for the Melvins. They had such good taste...Since then I met Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic, and I was stunned by their gentleness, their kindness, their availability, their simplicity. Just good guys who loved to have fun playing rock. Apart from punk rock, everything bored them to death. Except for potatoes: Chris can talk about them with passion, he has plenty in his garden. He explained everything to me."
    ― Jeff Buckley | Les Inrockuptibles, June, 1995

    He mentions that Grace is good “for meeting chicks” while he’s actually talking about how much he loves his boss’s record. I don’t think any of us feel great about saying this is “Taylor Hawkins on Jeff Buckley.”

    I just love Dave's deadpan when Taylor says "that was my meeting-chicks-record", as if it's the most mundane thing in the world. Which of course it is. ;)
