  Tom Grant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tom Grant is a private investigator known for his involvement in high-profile cases involving celebrity clients.
Grant rose to national prominence in 1994 when he claimed that rock musician Kurt Cobain, lead singer of the popular band Nirvana, had in fact been murdered, and not committed suicide, as was the official police conclusion.
Grant also questions the labelling of the note Cobain left as a "suicide note"; Grant instead believes that it was merely a letter "clearly written to Cobain's fans telling them he was quitting the music business." Grant also believes Cobain planned to leave his wife Courtney, which, in his opinion, provides for a possible motive.

Fairly simple grooves form the basis for keyboardist Tom Grant's originals on this CD, a set of repetitive jazz-influenced dance music that frequently has Grant singing along quietly with his instruments.
Despite plenty of soloing and the use of some creative players (including guitarists Dan Balmer and Rodney Drayton), everything is secondary to the funky grooves (even the occasional soul vocals) in the likable but rather predictable and commercial program.
Tom Grant's tame dreams musically depicted on the set are far from wild.

 Grant Green - Tom Morello Project Forum
During his 1960s prime, jazz guitarist Grant Green was overshadowed by rivals Wes Montgomery and George Benson, two immensely talented players who made successful forays into the pop world.
But although Green passed away in 1979, the 1990s have seen a Grant Green renaissance, thanks to the birth of acid jazz, the reemergence of soul jazz, the jazz-reissue boom, and, most importantly, Green's distinctive guitar style--steeped in his RandB roots and boasting a clear, biting, soulful tone that makes him attractive to rock fans
His soloing is outstanding, and his ability to emulate a horn player is amazing.
