    Spinning my Nirvana again I forgot how good these EMI pressings were made. I have these and all Orlake pic discs and obviously the picture discs have surface noise. These few EMI pressings are so damn good. So glad I still have these from the 90s.

      This record sounds incredible, with dynamics for days. I know the 2013 45 RPM cut is the consensus preference, but this is really nice for two of those songs, and I would put this up there with it in of quality.

        The B side starts with one of Nirvana's hardest tunes. Then it ones of the calmest. What an incredibly beautiful tube 'Marigold' is. A clear indication of Dave Grohl's future success.
