Mary Lou Lord sets the record straight on her friendship with Kurt Cobain.

Wow. I was just thinking the other day about how much I loved Mary Lou Lord’s music, and how we should really devote a day to her on here. Seeing this only makes me feel more strongly about it. The last thing she should be remembered for is slander about her relationship with Kurt Cobain. The woman wrote some incredible songs (as the video should prove) and did some pretty amazing covers as well. I wish her health hadn’t prevented her from continuing to make records, but she released several great ones in the 90s and early 00s, and we’ll talk about them on here as soon as possible, because she’s someone you all need to know about.
