well first off, i got it for 40 usd which is pretty good,
second, i was expecting to have at least 80-90% of the
stuff, instead i got maybe 20, and lastly its rreeaallyy
good, all these great gems at pretty good quality, i cant
stop listening to it, so now i am going to have to get my
early 90's grunge rock fix as well as my experimental
electronic bleeps and peeps. which is great when mixed.

the dvd is very good, but its not like live tonight sold
out, its more just footage of them playing at small shows or
practising, its great still but you just have to really like
nirvana to really like it, either that or you like watching
bands rehearse.

surprised that some of them weren on there.

I really like Nirvana and I thought the dvd was pretty poor.

the first 9 or 10 songs are just them practising at krists
mothers house or something and its basically any garage
bands drunken rehearsal, i liked it because it is what
nirvana is, but i know what your saying it gets kind of
boring and does not warrent repeat viewings, but i like
throwing it in everynow and then and catch a song i like,
the version of big cheese on there is really good

there is the live version of something in the way, that is
not on there, and its such a classic, oh well, theres plenty
here to make up for what they forgot

true, but it was delayed because they were waiting to get
the rights for all of the material. obviously you cant put
out it all but, at least put some more of the original
unreleased stuff

It's a very good collection, especially the dvd, however
sound quality wise overall it's not great. The early
pre-Nevermind stuff sounds worse than some of the bootlegs I
have of the same songs from around the same time. Other
tracks sound excellent and there is the added bonus of the
previously unheard track, 'Do Re Mi'. 'Seasons in the Sun'
is another highlight on the dvd... shame Kurt was such a
mixed up person.
