Releases: Released on vinyl, cassette and CD in 1994. Reissued on LP in November 1998 by Simply Vinyl.
Additional Information: Produced and remixed by Scott Litt. Contains two-songs which were cut from the original television broadcast. All songs were done in one take. Although the official release is technically complete at 46 minutes (containing all the songs that were recorded), the show was actually about 69 minutes long, with all breaks between songs, jamming, tuning and interaction with the crowd cut from this release. Conceived originally as disc one of a two-CD release, the second CD containing other live tracks spanning the band's life. However, the band were unable to complete the project, feeling it was too close to Kurt's death. The 'second CD' in effect would appear in 1996 as 'From The Muddy Banks Of The Wishkah'. The vinyl release by Simply Vinyl is a 180g vinyl pressing with a heavy quality sleeve.
Enters the Billboard Chart at #1 and sells more than 300,000 copies in its first week.
