NIRVANA Live At Reading (2009 UK Deluxe Edition 2-disc
[Region 0 DVD / CD] set - Ranked #1 in Kerrang Magazine's
'100 Gigs That Shook The World' and voted as 'Nirvana's #1
Greatest Moment' by fans in an NME poll, Nirvana's historic
August 30th1992 headlining appearance at the UK's Reading
Festival is one of the most bootlegged concerts in the annals
of rock'n'roll. Now, fans have an opportunity to own a pristine
5.1 Surround Sound mix of that entire performance, complete
with colour-corrected video from the original film with audio
sourced from the original multi-track masters. While the
show's centerpiece was a performance of nearly the entire
'Nevermind' tracklist, also noteworthy were early
performances of three as yet unrecorded songs which
wouldn't be released until 2 years later on 'In Utero' ['All
Apologies', 'Dumb', and in its first ever public performance,
'Tourette's']. The career-spanning setlist also reached back
to the band's 1989 Sub Pop debut album, 'Bleach,' for 'Blew,'
'About A Girl,' 'School,' 'Negative Creep' and first single 'Love
Buzz' [not included on the CD], and even further back to the
mid-'80s for 'Spank Thru', plus tracks that would appear in
studio form on the 'Incesticide' compilation later in the year:
'Aneurysm,' 'Been A Son' and 'Sliver.' Additionally, the band
played a pair of beloved covers by two bands that helped
shape the formative Nirvana sound – 'The Money Will Roll
Right In' by Fang and 'D-7' by The Wipers. Presented in
fold-out digipak sleeve. Although not sealed, the hype
stickered case remains excellent!)
