Nirvana: Hormoaning [DGC, 1992]
Four 1990 Peel-session covers plus two sides of a theoretical single, none duplicated on Bleach, which it smokes (without David Grohl they're sludge monkeys), or Nevermind, which it can hang with (Kurt Cobain yowls like John Hancock crosses his k's). They're obviously a band to hear live (with a multiplatinum sound system, please). Especially since the ticket won't cost much more than this yen-pegged EP. Aren't you glad Mitsubishi owns MCA, so you can home-tape it legally? A−
