Nirvana
Christmas In Seattle 1988 (clear)
EARLY NIRVANA RECORDINGS FROM THE CHAD CHANNING ERA
By the autumn of 1988, Nirvana had a more stable drummer in Chad Channing - who, after a number of short term
sticks-men, joined the emerging combo for almost 2 years. In November '88 the band released debut single ove Buzz' for
Seattle indie Sub Pop, which was chosen as record of the week in the UK weekly, Sounds.
In December 1988 Sub Pop put out the Sub Pop 200 compilation album featuring otherwise unavailable cuts by artists
signed to the label, such as Tad, Mudhoney, Soundgarden and Green River; Nirvana's 'Spank Thru' was featured too. On
28th December Nirvana played a dynamic set at the album's launch party which took place at the Hollywood Underground
Club in Seattle, and which featured a fine selection of tunes later to be recorded for their debut LP Bleach. The
performance was additionally broadcast across FM radio in the local vicinity as promotion for the label's current
roster.
The 11 bonus cuts here are from studio rehearsals that also took place in the final month of 1988 at Reciprocal Studios
in Seattle.
