Iggy Pop Talks About Nirvana

Iggy Pop recently sat down with ABC News and talked about his playlist of musical inspirations. Iggy nostalgically recalled sitting in his Father's Cadillac listening to Frank Sinatra's "Young at Heart", and spending time with his girlfriend listening to the Ronette's "Be My Baby." He also remembers the impact Nirvana and the late Kurt Cobain had on him: "Nirvana was a breath of fresh air. I thought 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' was an extremely powerful track."

Iggy is a raconteur of sorts. Every interview he gives is captivating and showcases his immense breadth of musical knowledge. Great clip and interview done by ABC News.
