Live Nirvana Bootography Review:
Paradiso Lost is the only commercially available disc to ever be released with the complete 11/25/91 show. Unfortunately the sound is mono and it has quite a bit of hiss, it doesn't sound quite as good as "Sliver" and most of the other incomplete releases of this performance, plus the complete FM broadcast is available in nearly perfect sound quality through trading and there was already an excellent stereo version circulating when this disc came out, so in terms of sound quality this disc is basically useless.

In case you missed it on Live Tonight Sold Out, the officially released Nirvana video, this is the show where Kurt screams the Come As You Are lyrics while his guitar is terribly out of tune. The song is massacred and Kurt's reaction makes this a classic concert moment for the band. This track had never been available on a commercial disc before. All other 11/25/91 discs are cut and out of order - none contain the Come As You Are track and if they contain the Territorial Pissings track at all, it is cut. The relatively poor sound really detracts from what could have been one of the most exciting bootleg releases ever.
