Courtesy of Sub PopSub Pop’s got free MP3s of “About a Girl” and a live version of “Scoff”. Download away, and check out a few more pics and Nirvana goodies over here.Couple things Jack Endino — the producer/engineer who recorded Nirvana’s debut, Bleach — told me recently.On the early Nirvana sound:”They didn’t come out of a vacuum. There was a certain sound among some people in Olympia, and Bainbridge Island, and Aberdeen and so-forth.”On the Pine Street Theater show in Portland (Feb. 9, 1990) getting released on Nov. 3 with the Bleach re-issue:”It’s a very typically early-1990 Nirvana show. Probably about as good as they got when Chad Channing was in the band. Chad plays drums extremely well on this. I think people will re-evaluate him. Because, of course, you know, with Dave Grohl following after — who’s one of the best drummers in the world — Chad really hasn’t gotten his due. He’s much better than most people realize. Basically it rocks, that’s all I’m saying.”
