Nirvana Bootography Review:
This disc is a complete waste. It is the most defective CD known to the Nirvana Bootography. The same disc was released under two titles - "Nirvana At The Hollywood Palladium" and "It Wasn't The First Time A Monster Was Mistaken For A God."

Upon inspection, you can see black specks on the underside of the CD. If you hold the disc up to light, you will see that the "specks" are in fact holes!! The holes do not penetrate the plastic, they are in the silver part of the CD that contains the data. "It Wasn't The First Time A Monster Was Mistaken For A God" appears to be even more defective than "Nirvana At The Hollywood palladium." The latter disc can be played if you can stand the clicking noise that is readily audible throughout the disc. "It Wasn't The First Time A Monster Was Mistaken For A God," on the other hand, will not even play!

The most fascinating thing about this defective CD is that it was cloned multiple times! Amazingly, a brilliant bootlegger for Swindle records came into posession of one of these discs and produced magnificent copies of this garbage. You can listen to this treat if you are unfortunate enough to pick up "Live And Demo(n)s".

It's a shame these discs are defective. The Koln tracks had a lot of potential.
