Rare Tracks Vol. III

Live Nirvana Bootography Rating: A-

Live Nirvana Bootography Review:
This CD is Cloned from Outcesticide III and contains some of the rarest of the rarities. Tracks 20-22 are of lesser sound quality than what is typical of the Outcesticide series because they are the only recordings available of a particular song (Curmudgeon has since surfaced in a little better quality). This is an excellent compilation disc for collectors and contains a number of tracks found on only a few other discs. Outcesticide III was released in late 1995.

This disc grabbed tracks 14, 15 and 19 from the 11/25/90 show. These tracks aren't bad, but I think the Season in Hell Vol.1 set has them in a little better quality. A couple of tracks (6, and 7) are from the 06/xx/88 studio sessions and I've heard versions that are a little more crisp... still not bad though. The first 3 tracks are from the 2/4/94 French broadcast and are excellent. There is a description of the remaining tracks below.

Outcesticide III is an excellent disc to pick up. It contains songs of varying sound quality, but all the recordings are listenable. Opinions on the disc vary widely. Some collectors feel that the CD is the best of the Outcesticide series, while others feel that the rare early recordings of poorer sound quality detract from the disc.
