I presume you’re alert to the differences between the 70s originals (as used by Kurt) and the 90s reissues.

(I have not owned either, FWIW.)

yes have read some of the analyses - 70s originals seem impossible to find, not sure i would want to spend $700+

this snazzy comparison brightened my day

Yeah, the big box reissues can look (at least superficially) very similar, which IIRC has resulted in inflated prices from less informed (or unscrupulous) sellers.

In any case, sounds like you're on top of things - good luck with the hunt.

Mexican Seafood is such a funny song... I wish Kurt had showcased his funny/silly side more over time

---

Ah, the itchy flakes, it is a flaming
All the gels and cremes, it is pertaining
To a fungus mold cured by injection
Hope it's only ah, a yeast infection

Oh well it hurts when I, it hurts when I pee
Oh well it hurts when I, it hurts when I see

Now I vomit cum and diarrhea on the tile floor like oatmeal pizza
Fill my toilet bowl full of a cloudy puss
I feel the blood becoming chowder rust

Oh well it hurts when I, it hurts when I pee
Oh well it hurts when I, it hurts when I see

Roll into my bed which does consist of
Lice bugs and fleas
And yellow mucus
Stained dirt, Vaseline, toe jam & boogers
Stomach acid worms that dance in sugared sludge

This newly-surfaced 1990 interview/discussion is just great:

It seems like such a trite thing to say but watching this makes me really wish Kurt found a way to navigate the following few years more successfully.

He seems so relaxed, engaged and unburdened by it all here, in contrast to his interviews even 18 months later, post-Nevermind.

interesting when he talks about Jason leaving the band bc he didn't want to transition to a pop-like sound ... kinda respect that

also kinda cool how Fugazi's 'Promises' comes on about 11 mins in and Kurt seems to stop for a sec and notice it

i will need help with this... piecing everything back together after being in storage ... have only played my acoustic for the last few years ... had to take my amp to get repaired ... but have enough pedals now where i should prob get a pedal board:

Dunlop Uni-vibe UV-1
Boss Digital Delay DD-3
Crybaby 535Q
Small Clone
Boss DS-1 (japan)
Poly Chorus (pending)

i can't wait to turn on the uni-vibe, small clone, and poly chorus all at the same time on max setting :haha:
