Hank Harrison - Soaked in Bleach / Books The Dead : A social history of the Haight-Ashbury experience
February 22
From the archives the late Hank Harrison joined Ed Opperman to talk about the murder of Kurt Cobain. Why is no one taking his evidence forward?
Hank Harrisonis a writer and researcher whose special areas of interest spread widely across a plethora of subjects, but unlike many other researchers, this hasn’t dulled his attention to detail in any of them.
The father of Courtney Love, he talks candidly to Ed Opperman about his estranged daughters’ relationship with Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. Cobain had a troubled life suffering from depression and the pressures of being the lead in one of the most iconic bands of the 1990s.
Cobain died on April 5, 1994, and was found dead in his Denny-Blaine, Seattle homewith gunshot wounds. Cobain had previously been discharged from hospital and also received visits from Seattle PD as a matter of being a danger to himself. Calls requested from his wife, Courtney Love.
Harrison details a story of twists and turns, of half-truths and outright lies that made up the investigation into the singers death and the ramifications that followed; he makes his case, as he does in his book, that Courtney Love had a great deal more to do with the tragedy than either the law or the mainstream media would report.
In an almost bizarre symmetry, Denny-Blaine, Seattle is also known as ‘Harrison’.
Hank Harrison died in February 2022 with the case still reverberating across the decades. Perhaps we will never know the truth of the matter. But we can, with Hank’s legacy of research, make an educated guess.
Soaked in Bleach is a 2015 American docudrama directed by Benjamin Statler, who co-wrote and produced it with Richard Middelton and Donnie Eichar.The film details the events leading up to the death of Kurt Cobain, as seen through the perspective of Tom Grant
