I really should have that of more what everyone else would like, not what I like. I'm a big fan of all the rare, raw Nirvana stuff.

If I do recall I did get into Nirvana by of course listening to all those polished Nevermind tracks and slowly working my way into getting a better liking for Bleach and I'm at were I am now.

Again, thank you, in future comps i'll take some of the things you stated into consideration.
Glad that you saw it as constructive criticism, as I was afraid I might have come off as being too negative

I'm a big fan of the rare stuff too...when I was a kid, years before the box set came out I collected cassette tapes with pre-Bleach demos, alternate versions of songs, etc...and alot of the time I preferred them to the stuff on albums. Also even though it's not technically a studio album, Incesticide is my favorite record by Nirvana.

But like you said, most Nirvana fans started with Nevermind and worked their way through the rest. I did as well. So for a beginner guide, that mindset is important. It can be hard though, when you're a huge fan and you want to include all this rare stuff because its your favorites.
