Description

Marking the 20th anniversary of Nirvanas debut album, Sub Pop reissue the platinum certified Bleach.

This expanded double LP will include a never-before-released live performance and special packaging, pressed on 180g white vinyl (the first run of the original LP was also on white vinyl).

Originally recorded over three sessions with producer Jack Endino at Seattles Reciprocal Recording Studios in December 1988 and January 1989, Bleach was released in June of 89 and remains unequivocally / unsurprisingly Sub Pops very favourite Nirvana full-length.

The album initially sold 40K copies, but was brought into the international spotlight following the release and worldwide success of their 1991 sophomore effort, Nevermind. Subsequently, Bleach went on to sell 1.7 million copies in the US alone. This 20th anniversary edition has been re-mastered from the original tapes at Sterling Sound, in a session overseen by producer Jack Endino.

This edition will include an unreleased live recording of a complete February 9th, 1990 show at the Pine Street Theatre in Portland, Oregon. The show features performances of Love Buzz, About A Girl and a cover of The Vaselines song Mollys Lips and has been re-mixed from the original tapes by Endino. A 16-page LP booklet which includes candid photos of the band not previously released to the public will also be included in this deluxe edition.

Available on limited edition 180g white double vinyl (1200 copies).
