Nirvana definitely was age dependant, I thought. I was a freshman in high school when they first started being noticed, and trust me, they were a BIG deal to a lot of people in that age bracket.
As for the Dead, if you've only listened to studio albums it's perfectly understandable that you don't get it. You have to dig thru the vaults to get to the good stuff. AH, if you ever want really high quality GD, I've got it. My Mom and one of my uncles were tapers and had some shows even the Dead didn't have so I have lots of 1st gen digital stuff that they got through trading.
