What do you guys think?
I have been a "hardcore" fan for about 10 years now (Bought my first album in grade 6, about 3 months before he died) and have heard and own multiple bootlegs and I am still excited for this.
The greatest hits was somewhat of a let down as I have the "Previously Unreleased Track" on 2 other bootlegs but the Journals I thought was very impressive.

What do you guys think about the release, a little late? Will you be interested?

Lets Talk Nirvana!
Who reads this???

Apart from a few good songs they have I think it's the most overrated band ever. And I hate that Cobain dude.
So I don't think I'll buy it maybe copy it when someone who I know gets it.

I think Nirvana was overrated as well. But I still like their music.

The thing was at the time the music industry was being pounded by "Pop Hair Metal" crap so much that when a band like Nirvana showed up, which was basically the opposite of that type of music, it was so fresh, not so much new but fresh that people grasp onto it as the "new thing"

Kurt was a talented song writer no doubt, but I don't think Nirvana was all they were hyped to be.

Nirvana changed my idea of what music was.

I was young at the time so that music was just taking a hold of my life. I could have been listening to Wham! one second and Naughty by Nature the next. I started hearing this music from Nirvana and could see that it was not contrived BS. When I mustered enough money to buy the album, It was my first in that I listened to it as a whole.

For the next few years after that, they were a real important part of pop culture. They mean a lot to me beyond just the music.

I heard on a local radio station that there are nearly 70 songs included in this set. That out numbers the amount of songs they formally released on all their albums, ever.
