REVIEW:

The label and cover art reference copyright 1994 but I couldn't come up with any other information about this release being previously released.  Not in this format anyway. 

This is a really nice compilation of demos, rehearsal takes, one-off appearances, etc.  The overall sound quality is superb and evenly mastered, given the various caliber of the recordings themselves.  The tracks are presented with a very thoughtful flow which makes for an enjoyable listening experience, which is nice when the label could have easily taken the chronological approach.  Highly recommended for the Nirvana completists.


The best toys are the ones that are both educational and multi-purposeful.
