| 01/20/90 Tacoma, WA - Legends
Length: 55 min - complete Quality: A- (private shot) Generation: VID(1)->D8(1)->DVDR(2) Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: There are many cuts between songs and a few songs also cut in slightly. The video is shot from the stage on Krist's side (left). The shot usually focuses on the entire stage but there are some good close ups of Kurt and Krist. Chad is mostly hidden behind the PA and drums. This picture quality is a little grainy but is fairly bright and clear overall. The audio is clear and balanced very well considering the tapers position. After "Scoff," Krist sings parts of The Beatles' "All You Need Is Love" and "If I Fell." Matt Lukin of Mudhoney jumps onstage numerous times causing fights between him and the bouncers. Setlist: School (cuts in) / Floyd The Barber (cuts in) / Love Buzz / Dive (has a cut) / Scoff / About A Girl / Big Cheese / Molly's Lips / Token Eastern Song / Spank Thru / Breed / Stain / Been A Son>Sweet Home Alabama (cuts in) / Negative Creep / Blew 02/12/90 Sacramento, CA - Cattle Club Length: 45 min - complete Quality: A (private shot) Generation: 8mm(M)->MiniDV(2)->DVDR(3) Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: This video is shot from the right-hand side of the stage, next to Kurt. There are virtually no obstructions, which results in very good close-ups of all band members. However, the video is very dark due to the venue's lighting. The picture quality is very good. The audio is slightly distorted at times but is very good overall. Setlist: Love Buzz / Floyd The Barber / School / About A Girl / Dive / Polly / Molly's Lips / Sappy / Scoff / Breed / Been A Son / Stain / Negative Creep (cuts in) / Blew (cuts out) 02/14/90 San Francisco, CA - Kennel Club Length: 52 mins - incomplete Quality: B (private shot) Generation: VHS(2)->STANDALONE->DVDR (6) Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: This video features 2 camera angles, both are shot from the back of the venue. The shots are very steady and are very well shot. There are excellent close ups of all members as well as good shots of the whole stage. The one downside is that slow motion effects are used, this is only for very small sections though. The picture suffers slightly from generation loss and appears very grainy at times, the audio is soundboard and is of very good quality. The DVD does not have a menu but has the correct chapter points. Setlist: Floyd The Barber / Love Buzz / jam / Dive / Sappy / Spank Thru / About A Girl / Scoff / Polly / Breed / Molly's Lips / Been A Son / Stain / Negative Creep / Blew 02/16/90 Long Beach, CA - Bogart's #1 Length: 46 min - incomplete Quality: A- (private shot) Generation: VID(2)->DVDR(3) Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: This video is shot from an elevated position at the back of the venue. The camera is focused mainly on the whole band. There are, however, a few good close-ups of each band member. The picture and audio are relatively clear throughout. Setlist: School / Floyd The Barber / Scoff / Dive / Verse Chorus Verse / About A Girl / Spank Thru / Breed / School / Been A Son / Stain / Negative Creep / Blew 02/16/90 Long Beach, CA - Bogart's #2 Length: 28 min - incomplete Quality: A- (private shot) Generation: VHS(3)->MINI-DV(1)->DVDR Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: This video is shot from the back of the venue, right of center. After "School" the taper moves left of center. The shot is very steady and in general is very well filmed. There are great close ups, especially of Kurt. The picture is rather grainy at times but is fairly good quality for 3rd generation. The audio is clear throughout. All songs that cut in are only missing part of the intro. Setlist: Love Buzz / Floyd The Barber / Scoff / Dive (cuts in) / About A Girl (cuts in) / Breed / School (cuts in) / Stain (cuts in) / Blew (cuts in) 02/17/90 Tijuana, Mexico - Iguana's #1 Length: 33 min - incomplete Quality: B+ (semi-professional shot) Generation: VID(4)->MiniDV(2)->DVDR(3) Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: This video was recorded with what appears to be 4 different cameras. There are excellent shots of all band members. The picture does suffer from generation loss and the color varies from very bright to fairly dull. The audio is very good throughout. The audio on "School" is overdubbed from Bleach, and footage of the "Breed" solo is used during the "School" solo. "School" is likely to have been the final song but was placed first on the video. The DVD is labeled as 02/18/90. Setlist: School / Love Buzz / Floyd The Barber / Scoff / Spank Thru / About A Girl / Breed / Been A Son / Stain / Negative Creep / Blew 02/17/90 Tijuana, Mexico - Iguana's #2 Length: 33 min - incomplete Quality: A- (semi-professional shot) Generation: Multi-camera master->VHS(x) "Newly discovered 1st generation"->"Donkey Show" Commercial DVDR->DVDR Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: This video was recorded with what appears to be 4 different cameras.

Setlist: School / Love Buzz / Floyd The Barber / Scoff / Spank Thru / About A Girl / Breed / Been A Son / Stain / Negative Creep / Blew 02/19/90 Phoenix, AZ - Mason Jar Length: 55 min - complete Quality: B+ (private shot) Generation: VID(2)->DVDR(3) Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: This video is shot from the front left of the stage, directly in front of Krist. There are excellent close-ups of Kurt and Krist. Chad gets hidden behind Krist fairly often. The picture quality is very good despite being dark at times. The audio is somewhat distorted. The bass is prominent while the vocals are low. Setlist: School / Floyd The Barber / Scoff / Dive / Polly / Spank Thru / Breed / About A Girl / Been A Son / Stain / Negative Creep / Blew / Molly's Lips / Love Buzz 03/20/90 Olympia, WA - Evergreen State College #1 Length: 14 min - incomplete Quality: A (semi-professional shot) Generation: VID(1)->DVDR(3) Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: These are early music videos recorded at the Evergreen State College over the spring break by three students. The songs were cut live in the studio and the background footage from various TV shows and Nirvana concerts were added afterwards. Because of this, two versions of the session exist: a finished version, containing all the background footage and an unfinished version, which features less background footage. The version used to make this DVD was the unfinished version, which is missing some of the background footage. The videos were never officially released but clips were aired on MTV's Tribute to Nirvana. Setlist: School (Take 2) / Big Cheese (Take 2) / Floyd The Barber / Lithium 03/20/90 Olympia, WA - Evergreen State College #2 Length: 37 min - complete Quality: A (private shot) Generation: VID(x)->STANDALONE->DVDR(1)->REAUTHOR->DVDR Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: Setlist: School (Take 1) / School (Take 2) / Lithium / Jam / Big Cheese (Take 1) / Big Cheese (Take 2) / Floyd The Barber / School (Take 2 - Edit) / Lithium (Edit) / Behind the scenes (1) (Floyd The Barber) / Behind the scenes (2) 04/10/90 Ann Arbor, MI - Blind Pig #1 Length: 50 min - complete Quality: A- (private shot) Generation: VID(3)->REMASTER->DVDR(3) Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: This video is shot from directly to the left of the stage, right next to Krist. There are good shots of all band members. Krist sometimes obscures the view though. The picture and audio quality are fairly good. The vocals are a little low at times. Setlist: School / Floyd The Barber / Love Buzz / Dive / Spank Thru / Breed / About A Girl / Big Cheese / Scoff / Molly's Lips / Stain / Been A Son / Negative Creep / Blew 04/10/90 Ann Arbor, MI - Blind Pig #2 Length: 50 min - complete Quality: B- (private shot) Generation: VHS(x)->D8(1)->DVDR(6) Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: This video is shot from the front right of the stage, very close to Kurt. There are some nice shots of Kurt and Krist, but Chad is not very visible behind the drums. The picture is fairly good quality and does not appear too generated. The audio is, however, very distorted with the vocals quite low in the mix. The taper has many obstructions during the last 2 songs of the show and cannot get many shots of the band through the audience heads. Setlist: School / Floyd The Barber / Love Buzz (cuts in) / Dive / Spank Thru / Breed / About A Girl / Big Cheese / Scoff / Molly's Lips / Stain / Been A Son / Negative Creep / Blew 04/17/90 Montreal, PQ, Canada - Foufounes Electriques #1 Length: 11 min - incomplete Quality: A- (professional shot) Generation: VID(3)->DVDR(1) Video Format: NTSC Image from DVD: Here Comments: This is shot from an elevated position the back of the venue, apart from a small part of "Floyd The Barber" which is shot from the right. There are very good close ups of Kurt and a few of Krist. The shots of Chad are usually very dark. The picture is fairly clear and doesn't appear too generated. The sound is good throughout. This disc also contains the 09/21/91 show.

Slow motion and zooming effects are used for a large portion of the video. The video is often fairly dark but when it is brighter it appears a little more generated and the colours washed out. Audio is consistently good throughout.

There are excellent shots of all band members. The picture quality is very good. Once in a while the stage lights blur the image, but overall the quality is excellent. The audio is overdriven and the bass is very loud and overbearing on the vocals. The disc also includes the "Sliver" music video and a "Jesus Lizard" live performance.
