Cobain: I'm Kurt and we're Nirvana.

Grohl: And You're watching Raw Power TV.

Novoselic: The first album I ever bought was an 8-track tape, Led Zeppelin III, then I brought it home and there wasn't no crazy gyro-spiral wheel in it, so…

Grohl: You got ripped.

Novoselic: I got ripped, totally man!

Grohl: I never bought records, I waited for CDs to come out, because I think that records are just shit!

Novoselic: And you've got reel-to-reels, right? [laughs]

Cobain: Right, quadraphonic.

Novoselic: We never bought any records.

Grohl: Y'know, records just blew!

Cobain: No, I bought Seasons In The Sun by Terry Jacks.

Grohl: Actually, the first record that I ever bought…

Novoselic and Cobain: [sing] "We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons In the sun…"

Grohl: I don't know that song, I didn't buy that record!

Cobain: Oh, you don't know that?

Grohl: No!

Cobain: Oh, it didn't come out on CD.

Grohl: That's right.
