Copy at Case Memorial Library
Contents: Blew — Floyd the barber — About a girl — School — Love buzz — Paper cuts — Negative creep — Scoff — Swap meet — Mr. Moustache — Sifting — Big cheese — Downer; live bonus tracks: Intro — School — Floyd the barber — Dive — Love buzz — Spank thru — Molly's lips — Sappy — Scoff — About a girl — Been a son — Blew.
"Hot on the heels of Live at Reading is this dolled-up 20th-anniversary (!) edition of Nirvana's debut, which barely hit the radar on its initial release but whose resonance ballooned. … Now, its near-greatness is plain, most clearly on 'About a Girl,' in the abraded Lennon-McCartney chord changes, and in the existential grunge howl of 'School.' The bonus live tracks, also pre-Dave Grohl — from Portland, Oregon, February 9th, 1990 — include both songs, plus revelatory takes on 'Been a Son' and the Vaselines' 'Molly's Lips.' Beginning with a feedback overture and ending with full-on instrument destruction, the live set is a snapshot of a menacingly feral band about to become a beast" (Will Hermes, "Bleach: Deluxe Edition," Rolling Stone, 11/12/09, p. 74).
